There is a lot of talk about a change of technical leadership at Milan. Stefano Pioli’s cycle seems to have ended with Julen Lopetegui who could be an interesting profile for the Rossoneri. Interviewed by today’s edition of Gazzetta dello Sport, Filippo Galli commented: “If he becomes the next Milan manager, he will show up with a Europa League victory after beating Inter in the final. As a business card it’s not bad…
Is he the right man for Milan? The field will tell this. It’s true, things didn’t go well for him at Madrid and Porto, but as Spain coach he achieved great results, playing spectacular football, and in Seville he won. If Milan are looking for a coach with experience and the ability to work with young people, Lopetegui could be an interesting profile.
Its merits? The offensive game proposal first and foremost: San Siro and Milan fans are used to seeing good football. Lopetegui is going in this direction and let’s not forget that he belongs to the Basque school: from Xabi Alonso to Arteta and Unai Emery, many are doing very well. Lopetegui is a modern coach, who builds his teams according to the principles of positional football. And at Milan he would find a ‘predisposed’ team thanks to Pioli’s work.”
