Serie A is preparing to live an eventful summer, marked by a real waltz of coaches that could redraw the landscape of Italian football. While the Napoli still savoring its conquered scudetto with Panache, AC Milan brought back the supercoppa to the house and Bologna created the surprise by winning the Coppa Italia. But all eyes are now turned to Inter, the last transalpine representative on the European scene, which is about to play a final of the Summit Champions League. In this climate of uncertainty and transition, the benches of the big clubs vacillate, announcing a high tension off -season. Before getting to the heart of the matter, the future Nerazzurri project is still vague. Despite the Saudi sirens from al-Hilal, Simone Inzaghi kicked in touch as to her future, preferring to focus on the final against PSG. The Milanese management has been very clear: it wishes to offer a lucrative extension to keep the Italian coach. In Florence, Raffaelle Palladino should be maintained despite a second part of the season more irregular than the first half. As for Bologna, the negotiations continue between the leaders and Vincenzo Italiano for a renewal after a flamboyant campaign if the Rossoblù are not immune to a reversal of the situation, the negotiations go from a good train between the parties. At this stage, the only teams which are certain to keep the current manager are: Cagliari, Fiorentina, Parma, Udinese and Verona.
Gasperini, the first domino? Motta waiting
This is one of the big files of this end of May. The Gian Piero Gasperini soap opera has been in suspense for all bergame for several weeks. Architect of the Renewal of Atalanta, recently haloed by a solid 3rd remarkable place, the Italian technician blows hot and cold as for his future. On the one hand, it suggests that a cycle is coming to an end, evoking a possible departure with a touch of weariness. On the other, he multiplies the declarations of love to his club, affirming his desire to continue the adventure if the conditions are met. This double discourse fuels speculation, and the suspense remains whole. As announced by the Italian press this week, a large meeting, like that of last summer, took place between the leaders and the Italian coach. And for the first time, Gasperini's departure has never been so likely, especially since AS Roma placed the 67 -year -old tactician on his list with an offer of 3 years on the table. According to our information, a final interview will be organized in the coming days to make a joint decision which would tend towards a departure.
In the event of Gasperini's departure, a name insistently circulates in the spans of the Gewiss Stadium. According to our indiscretions, the Bergamasque leaders make Thiago Motta their only candidate, if they had to get in search of a new coach. Indeed, since the declaration of last April (“There is a start and an end to all things, there will be no extension or continuity. At the end of the season, we will see if it will be the case to leave now or wait for the end of my contract) From Gian Piero Gasperini In a press conference, Atalanta was quick to multiply the preliminary contacts with the entourage of Thiago Motta, who had just been dismissed from his Juventus post. According to our indiscretions, the Atalanta is ready to enter into advanced negotiations if Gasperini were to fold up. Considered one of the children of the “Gasperinian” school, the former PSG player would be the perfect successor for the management of the DEA. But competition is already very active, given the hectic situation on several benches of Serie A.
Historical stables are already activating
AC Milan, which has just announced the arrival of Igli Tare in sports management, has planned many meetings this week between all the thinking heads of management to discuss the transfer window, but especially the next coach. According to our information, no track is today really open or advanced. The interviews scheduled for the coming days will determine a list of profiles decided by Tare, Furlani, Moncada and Ibrahimovic. AS Roma has experienced two seasons in one. Claudio Ranieri, a real Roman savior after the failures of Rossi and Juric, will leave his post. Several candidates appeal, notably Cesc Fabregas but Côme refuses to lose his coach and says he is ready to promise a transfer window at more than 100 million to get Europe next year. On the Juventus side, Igor Tudor will stay well on the Bianconeri bench at least until the Club World Cup, a change remains possible during the summer. Nevertheless, the very close summer calendar imposed by FIFA makes the situation far from being simple and the room for maneuver limited. Antonio Conte's return is a dream for many tifosi, but internally, Tudor appeals to the new Turin direction. And to date, the maintenance of the Croatian coach remains the most probable scenario according to our information. The old lady wants stability by reducing costs after several losses in recent months.
Napoli, always at the party, is preparing to turn the page Antonio Conte. But the meeting organized with Aurelio de Laurentiis this Tuesday did not really conclude from a departure – the parties leave the time to reflect. Massimiliano Allegri, who has a 3 -year offer on the table, is in pole position as the Italian press said. As for the Torino, Paolo Vanoli has already met the sports director Davide Vagnati, a few days ago. According to our information, President Urbano Cairo, furious against the recent declarations of his coach, would like to send him back and already thinks of his successor. Three names circulate in the corridors of the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino: Maurizio Sarri, Alberto Gilardino or Gennaro Gattuso. In the event of the Lazio departure, Marco Baroni is a profile that appeals to the Turin presidency. Moreover, according to our indiscretions, the Roman president, Claudio Lotito, also wants to send Marco Baroni, author of a disappointing end of the season and an overall negative assessment, given the promises left at Christmas. Be careful not to minimize several other free profiles, such as Eusebio di Francesco, not sure to stay in Serie B with Venice. Patrick Vieira also has several Serie A tracks including Lazio, but Genoa wishes to keep it. Fabio Pecchia has always been free since his departure from Parma, just like Ivan Juric who has had a complicated season between Rome and Southampton. Alessio Dionisi will soon find himself without a bench, he is currently negotiating a termination with Palermo. Without forgetting Roberto Mancini, without a club since he left Saudi Arabia, which aims for a thunderous return to Italy. Just like Francesco Farioli.
