Despite a chaotic end of the season with Juventus, Thiago Motta bounces faster than expected. The former technician Bianconero, thanked last March after a black series, will not have waited long before finding a bench. And not just any. An emblematic club of Italian football has decided to trust him to relaunch a stop project.
According to information from Sky Sport Italia, AC Milan has chosen to bet on Thiago Motta to succeed Sergio Conceição, whose express passage in San Siro ended in a bitter failure. Despite an overwhelmed reputation in Turin, the Italian-Brazilian coach retains the esteem of several leaders, especially for his work in Bologna or Spezia. The Lombard club, in full reconstruction after a catastrophic season, hopes to revive an ambitious dynamic.
Motta expected to relaunch Milan after a dark season
If the formalization of the contract is expected in the coming days, this choice could cringe some teeth among the Tifosi Rossoneri. Indeed, Motta would grow the list of coaches who directed Juventus and Milan, such as Massimiliano Allegri, Fabio Capello or Carlo Ancelotti. A filiation which also shows the permeability between the two giants despite their historical rivalry.
Thiago Motta, an immediate return to the front of the stage
For Milan, it is a question of rebuilding on new bases after a season where the club will not even compete in European competition. Thiago Motta, renowned for his offensive philosophy and young management, will have to give meaning to the Rossonero project. Management hopes that it can breathe new energy into a workforce losing bearings.
At 42, Motta may play a decisive card for her career. If the mission promises to be perilous, it remains up to its ambitions. Milan puts on a young, tactician profile and already experienced in the requirements of Serie A. A daring bet … But sometimes, it is in an emergency that the great reconstructions are born.
