After the years spent with the Rossoneri, a possible transfer to the Saudi Pro League: it would be quite surprising.
This period is full of transfer market rumors, there are players and coaches who can start new professional adventures next season. Many names are at the center of rumors.
After the announcement of his non-confirmation at Milanlittle is being said about the future of Stefano Pioli. He had been linked to the benches of Naples and Bologna, who however took Antonio Conte and Vincenzo Italiano respectively. He remained tied to the Rossoneri club by a contract that will only expire in June 2025 and it will be interesting to see what his next adventure will be.
Pioli, first foreign challenge: the revelation
The Emilian coach admitted that he would like to work in Premier League, however at the moment the English companies have made other choices. He will have to wait before he hopes for a chance in the most competitive league in the world.
According to what was revealed by the sports journalist Fabrizio Romano, Pioli is one of Al-Ittihad’s three main candidates to replace Marcelo Gallardo. Already in May there was talk of the Argentine’s farewell to the Saudi club and then there was also a link to Milan, without anything concrete developing.
Certainly Al-Ittihad can formulate a particularly rich economic offer to convince Pioli to move to Saudi Po League. Gallardo receives a salary of around 20 million euros per year, so the former Milan player can also aspire to take a very high sum. It remains to be understood whether he really wants to try an experience in Saudi Arabia or whether he prefers to wait for a bench to become available in Serie A or another European championship.
Also Massimiliano Allegri was indicated as Al-Ittihad’s idea for the technical guidance of a team that has players such as N’Golo Kanté, Fabinho and Karim Benzema among its ranks. It’s also there on staff Luiz Felipea defender who we have seen in Italy with the shirts of Lazio and Salernitana.
The yellow and blacks finished the last championship in fifth place in the table, therefore they did not qualify for the next Champions League. A failure that will cost Gallardo his bench. Recently the president Anmar Al Haili revealed that he had been made a contract offer by ben 1.4 billion euros to Lionel Messi, who then preferred to go to the United States to Inter Miami. This testifies to the economic potential of the Saudi club, which is owned by the sovereign wealth fund PIF such as Al-Hilal, Al-Nassr and Al-Ahli.
