AC Milan have met with Oliver Glasner to discuss the head coach role, and it seems that the discussions went well.
The first face-to-face meeting between the incumbent Milan management and Glasner was eagerly awaited, after the Austrian bid farewell to Crystal Palace after an extraordinary campaign that concluded with the UEFA Conference League final win over Rayo Vallecano.
Glasner is one of the candidates being evaluated by Gerry Cardinale, Massimo Calvelli and Zlatan Ibrahimovic to succeed Massimiliano Allegri as AC Milan coach. Calciomercato.com confirm that a discussion took place face-to-face on Tuesday.
The meeting took place on June 2nd as scheduled, outside Italy. It was a dialogue defined as informative, but nonetheless positive and in which a good harmony between the parties emerged.
The first talks ended with a smile but nothing definitive, but this first face-to-face meeting is expected to be followed by others in the coming days to delve deeper into the discussion.
Glasner, however, is not the only front on which Cardinale and Ibrahimovic are working. The casting call for the coach role continues, and just like the ex-Palace boss, the other coaches in the running will also be evaluated and interviewed.
Mauricio Pochettino is another name in the running. The United States coach has not denied having had contact with the Rossoneri through his agents, despite the USA trying to convince him to extend the relationship beyond the end of the World Cup.
Contacts are also expected with Matthias Jaissle, who like Glasner is linked to the idea of ​​Ralf Rangnick as the new head of Milan’s sporting area. To hire him it would be necessary to negotiate with Al-Ahli. Then there is the Arne Slot idea, which emerged after the Dutchman’s split with Liverpool.
