AC Milan is prioritizing Ruben Amorim to lead their technical project, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic identifying the Portuguese coach as his preferred choice, according to reports from O Jogo and SAPO. While Amorim is cited as the primary candidate, the club is simultaneously weighing other options, including Matthias Jaissle and Glasner, according to different media outlets.
Why Ruben Amorim is the Primary Target
Ruben Amorim has emerged as the frontrunner to take over the Milan dugout. According to O Jogo, Amorim is the main candidate for the position. This preference is heavily driven by Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who, according to SAPO, views the Portuguese manager as the ideal fit for the club’s current needs. A Bola further reports that Amorim could return to professional activity in the very near future.
The Financial Hurdles of the Matthias Jaissle Option
While Amorim is the preferred choice, Milan is also pursuing other tactical profiles. According to mancheteesportiva.com.br, the club is advancing in efforts to hire Matthias Jaissle as their new coach.
However, the pursuit of Jaissle involves complex contractual negotiations. According to Goal.com, Jaissle is willing to waive a million-dollar salary to facilitate the move, but a specific buyout clause remains the primary obstacle to finalizing the deal.
Other Candidates in the Search
The search for a new manager extends beyond the two primary targets. Goal.com reports that Glasner is also on the club’s radar and is currently awaiting a call from the Italian side to discuss a potential appointment.
