It is unlikely that Sergio Conceicao remains AC Milan coach next season, and Roberto de Zerbi, from Marseille, was expected as potential replacement.

The days of Conceica at the head of Milan seem counted, and the former Porto coach should probably not stay on the bench next season. According to the Gazzetta dello Sport, by Zerbi, the Marseille coach, appears to be the favorite to succeed Conceicao, despite recurring criticisms concerning his management of the Mason Greenwood striker.

After recruiting two foreign coaches, Paulo Fonseca and Conceicao, the Rossoneri wish to return to an Italian coach and identified from Zerbi as the ideal candidate for this position. According to the Gazzetta, Fabio Paratici, scheduled to soon become the new sports director of Milan, met the agent of the Marseille coach in Milan.

Of Zerbi envisaged in Milan next season

Milan's interest in Zerbi follows the discontent of the current coach, Conceicao, who may not be able to keep him in post even if he leads the team to a title in the Italian Cup. The Serie giant has currently evolved in the ninth place in the ranking and the chances are slim, Conceicao hoping to help his team finish among the first four and qualify for the Champions League next season.

De Zerbi is not the only candidate for the Milanese position. Several Italian sources also suggest that Pep Guardiola, Manchester City coach, is a long -term target for the Rossoneri. If the chances remain slim, rumors circulate as to a possible transfer from Guardiola to Italy if the difficulties of City persist, despite its recent extension of two years.
