GdS: Three things Allegri would guarantee Milan if he became head coach | OneFootball

Massimiliano Allegri seems increasingly likely to be named the next AC Milan head coach, but it is far from a done deal, with a new sporting director still to be named.

The decision about the next head coach will be made by Giorgio Furlani and the new sporting director. So, it is not definite that Allegri will find himself on the Milan bench. By all accounts though, it seems that he is the number one candidate.

During his most recent spell with Juventus, fans became a little frustrated with the coach due to his methods and tactics. However, the Bianconeri still ended the season with things to build upon, and a report states that similar could happen with the Rossoneri.

Gazzetta dello Sport states that if the rumours become true and Allegri finds himself back on the sideline at San Siro, the Diavolo would instantly be guaranteed a few things, or at least have a strong chance of three things.

Primarily, the head coach is a fantastic coach, and this means that the Milan dressing room could become aligned once again, with rumours throughout the year of splits and fall-outs. Then, there is the focus on young talent, something that RedBird value very highly.

Perhaps the least guaranteed is the Champions League, yet this still is a priority for the coach. During his time with the Rossoneri, he ‘always ended up in the Champions League’, and in Turin, this was the case five times too.

It is more difficult to call this a guarantee, as it is not in his control, per se. However, the stats speak for themselves, and the owners are desperate for a top-four finish every season, at the minimum.
