Moretto: ‘Unanimous agreement’ – Ibrahimovic approves Lopetegui after ‘very positive’ talks | OneFootball

Julen Lopetegui seems to have convinced everyone in the AC Milan management and talks are ongoing over his appointment, according to one journalist.

This morning’s edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport claimed that Lopetegui is now the big favourite to replace Stefano Pioli and that owner Gerry Cardinale has even approved his potential appointment, suggesting that things are moving quite quickly.

According to the latest from Matteo Moretto of Relevo, Milan have decided to focus on Lopetegui for the post-Stefano Pioli era. The latest contacts between the parties were ‘very positive’ he states.

The Spanish coach generates ‘unanimous agreement’ within the Rossoneri board, bringing together both Gerry Cardinale and Zlatan Ibrahimović plus the rest of the management.

Lopetegui has given his priority to Milan and is ready to refuse the advances of West Ham who are offering him a much higher salary than the Rossoneri.

Other clubs such as Manchester United and Bayer Leverkusen have explored the idea of hiring the Spaniard in recent months as well.

Milan and Lopetegui are in total harmony regarding the objectives for next season and the value of the squad, one that is already considered as being able to compete for the Scudetto.
