The Portuguese coach, now officially the next Rossoneri coach, can rejoice at a request endorsed by the club.
A choice that has made and continues to cause much discussion, but what the Milan managers took it with conviction without being influenced by discontent and complaints from the streets which in the meantime were clamoring for something else.
The one of Paulo Fonseca as new Milan coach it is one of the most surprising choices of this end of spring which projects us directly towards the summer and towards the beginning of the summer transfer market session and then, consequently, towards the new football season.
The Portuguese coach he became the new coach of the Rossoneri with a contract valid until 2026, with the option for a hypothetical third year, worth two and a half million net per season. A courageous choice made by the Rossoneri managers who took on the full responsibility of displeasing the people who were clamoring for other figures on the AC Milan bench.
But that’s it. Fonseca doesn’t seem very distant from Stefano Pioli from all points of view and seems to follow almost the same tactical ideas and game proposal, but above all it could have and highlight the same defects as his Parma colleague. This is what Milan fans fear who already started with the idea that this was a terrible choice for their team.
Milan, market between Zirkzee and renewals
Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Geoffrey Moncada and Giorgio Furlani, however, continued on their way and now they will have to give Fonseca some targeted purchases that can strengthen the team and cover some clear and obvious gaps in the workforce. We will certainly start with the purchase of a new striker who can represent Milan’s present and future.
The first choice in this sense is and remains Joshua Zirkzee. The Rossoneri seem close to the Dutchman, but they are not done yet and this generates anxiety among the fans who would at least like a gift from their managers. One of the tasks to be carried out and present on the to-do list is certainly that of renewals. Two names above all: Theo Hernandez and Mike Maignanboth expiring in June 2026.
Milan, Maignan towards renewal
There Gazzetta dello Sport reported an indiscretion that makes Fonseca and all AC Milan fans happy. The French goalkeeper, in fact, would have confessed his desire to stay at Milan. After the European Championship in Germany which Mike will experience as a protagonist and starter with his France, we will be able to delve deeper into the discussion and put pen to paper on the contracts.
The Rossoneri, for their part, despite the approximately 40 games missed by Maignan in these three years of Milan and his constant injuries, they want to armor him to make any offensives from top European clubs less effective, such as Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Paris Saint Germain who in the past have shown interest in the Rossoneri number one.
