Rome: Silvio Berlusconi has effectively confirmed that AC Milan coach Filippo Inzaghi will be sacked at the end of what has been a bitterly disappointing season, Italian media reported on Tuesday.
“Inzaghi has a good relationship with the squad but on many occasions we have had different visions,” the club’s billionaire owner was quoted as saying during a visit to a supporters’ group on Monday evening.
“That is something we will express [to Inzaghi] at an appropriate time. We are deciding what to do.”
The media tycoon went on to indicate he was already considering possible replacements but appeared to play down the possibility of a return for former boss Carlo Ancelotti by saying: “We need to talk about concrete names”.
Ancelotti, who guided Milan to 2003 and 2007 Champions League triumphs, is expected to leave Real Madrid at the end of the season, with the Spanish giants set to end the campaign without a major trophy.
