Milan set for vital meeting with Andoni Iraola: the details | OneFootball

Serie A side Milan are now pushing to appoint Andoni Iraola, with Max Allegri having been sacked by the club yesterday.

The Rossoneri failed to qualify for the Champions League for the second consecutive time. This has triggered a chain of reactions from the ownership, leading to Allegri’s departure.

Gianluca Di Marzio has reported that the next few hours can hold key. This is because the Rossoneri have scheduled a meeting with Spaniard and this can be very important for his possible appointment in the summer.

MilanNews, at the same time, report that ex-CEO Giorgio Furlani met with Iraola last week. Ex-managing director Geoffrey Moncada was also part of this discussion, with the ex-Bournemouth manager now the firm favourite to become the next Milan manager.

Incredible appointment

Appointing Iraola would be quite wonderful for Milan, who ideally want to completely revolutionise their identity into a modern footballing institution. In the last two years, they have lagged behind and the instability has cost them dearly.

Iraola can bring a tactical identity on the board and even overperform with the resources at hand. This will be important, as Milan aren’t heavy spenders and managers are generally expected to make the most of what they have. Iraola can do that and an appointment will be game-changing.
