Milan meet with ex-Man United coach Amorim while waiting for Rangnick and Glasner | OneFootball

Reports in Italy claim that Ruben Amorim, formerly of Manchester United, is the latest coach that Milan have spoken to on their hunt to find a replacement for Massimiliano Allegri, but the combination of Ralf Rangnick and Oliver Glasner remains the most likely set-up for the Rossoneri.

Milan still meeting with head coaches while waiting for Rangnick and Glasner

Milan are still waiting to appoint a new coach and senior management team following the departures of Allegri, Igli Tare, Geoffrey Moncada and Giorgio Furlani the day after the 2025-26 season ended.

Recent reports from various outlets claim that Milan’s preferred option is to appoint Rangnick as technical director and to appoint Glasner, a ‘disciple’ of the former Red Bull revolutionary, as head coach.

Glasner is available following his departure from Crystal Palace, but Milan wish to appoint a new technical director first. Rangnick, meanwhile, is under contract with the Austria national team, who are trying to tie the German down with a new contract, which is why an appointment has not yet been made.

Meanwhile, according to reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport (via Calciomercato.com), Milan continue to meet with prospective head coaches while waiting to hear the outcome from the Rangnick-Glasner situation.

It has been reported that Gerry Cardinale has spoken with USMNT head coach Mauricio Pochettino, and Thursday’s updates claim that former Manchester United and Sporting CP boss Amorim is the latest coach that the Rossoneri have spoken with.

Calciomercato claims that Amorim’s candidacy is similar to Pochettino’s. They are not considered ‘leading’ candidate for the job: That status is reserved for Glasner, but anything could happen in the event that the Austrian ends up saying ‘no’ to the Rossoneri.
