Without a club since leaving Bayern Munich this summer, Thomas Tuchel is on AC Milan’s radar if Paulo Fonseca is sacked.
Having arrived on the AC Milan bench this summer to replace Stefano Pioli, Paulo Fonseca has had a complicated start to the season. The former Lille coach has so far only won one match in four Serie A outings, enough to occupy a disappointing tenth place, already five points behind the current leader, Udinese. No better in the Champions League since the entry into the competition of Rossoneri ended in a bitter home defeat against Liverpool (1-3). Enough to put Fonseca in danger. With potential successors waiting their turn.
According to The Gazzetta dello Sportthe AC Milan management has begun to seriously consider the subject of a sudden change of coach. Everything could thus be decided this weekend, during the derby against neighboring Inter. A task that promises to be very complicated, and this for several reasons. First because the Nerazzurri got off to a much better start and are third with a three-point lead. Then because it is Inter who will be supported by more supporters since they are hosting this Sunday (8:45 p.m.).
Application form
The fact remains that the upcoming result could weigh heavily on the continuation of Paulo Fonseca’s adventures on the Milan bench. The Italian press believes that several candidates are already in the running. In addition to that of Igor Tudor, the name of Thomas Tuchel comes up insistently. Free of any commitment since the termination of his contract by mutual agreement with Bayern Munich last June, the German is looking for a new challenge and Sky Sport assured for his part that he himself had opened the door to discussions.
After having spent time in the Bundesliga, Ligue 1 and the Premier League, Thomas Tuchel could discover a new championship, he who hoped for a time to coach FC Barcelona before being overtaken by Hansi Flick. If the place becomes available in Milan, he will have competition since Maurizio Sarri, also free as a bird, will also have his say.
