These are days of meetings for Paulo Fonseca who, after having had a long conversation with Olivier Letangpresident of Lilleshould meet today Pablo Longorianumber one of Marseille, a club that has had him in their sights for some time. In addition to Lille’s renewal proposal and Olympique’s offer (three-year deal worth 3.5 million euros per year), the Portuguese coach is also in the sights of Milan who, however, first want to resolve things with Stefano Pioli who on Saturday will lead the Devil from the bench for the last time against Salernitana.
STEFANO PIOLI’S FAREWELL – He reports it Tuttosport who explains that the Parma coach still has a year left on his contract which, including his staff, would weigh on the company’s coffers for approximately 11 million euros gross. It remains to be seen whether the long-awaited meeting between Milan and Pioli will take place already this week or whether it will instead take place after the return of the Milan team from Australia which will be engaged in a friendly match against Roma on May 31st.
FONSECA AND VAN BOMMEL – Once the situation with Pioli is resolved, the Devil’s managers will focus on the new coach. At the moment, Fonseca is always on polebut also watch out for the candidacy of Mark van Bommel, current Antwerp coach who knows the Milan environment well given that as a player he wore the Rossoneri shirt for a year and a half. Among other things, before returning to PSVEindhoven, he said that one day he would return to Milanello, perhaps as a coach. A prophecy that could also come true in the coming weeks.
