AC Milan confirm Sergio Conceicao sacking as Serie A side agree Massimiliano Allegri return - but new boss is banned for his first game in charge

<p>AC Milan had a disappointing 2024-25 season, finishing trophyless and eighth in the Serie A standings, which meant missing out on European football for the upcoming season. As such, the Rossoneri had reportedly been considering sacking head coach Conceicao after just six months in charge. The seven-time European champions have now confirmed the 50-year-old's departure from San Siro.</p><p></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">We would like to thank Sérgio Conceição and his staff for their commitment, professionalism and dedication shown during their time leading the First Team over the past&nbsp;few&nbsp;months. <a href="https://t.co/Qd8WDNIGCW">pic.twitter.com/Qd8WDNIGCW</a></p>— AC Milan (@acmilan) <a href="https://twitter.com/acmilan/status/1928174001169346755?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 29, 2025</a></blockquote>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Allegri has been on a hiatus since the summer of 2024, when Juventus sacked him after their disappointing 2023-24 season. The legendary Italian manager was expected to make a move to Napoli this summer with Antonio Conte having been said to be on his way out; however, it appeared that Allegri could stay out of the football scene once more as the former Chelsea manager changed his mind. However, according to <a href="https://gianlucadimarzio.com/allegri-squalifica-coppa-italia-milan-bari/" target="_blank">Gianluca di Marzio</a>, Allegri is now expected to sign with AC Milan, with the 57-year-old reportedly agreeing to a two-year deal with the Rossoneri.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>AC Milan are set to begin their 2025-26 season earlier than their rivals, as they will be in action against Serie B side Bari in the Coppa Italia. However, Allegri will not be on the touchline for his first game in charge of the Rossoneri because of the 57-year-old having been sent off in his last game with Juventus against Atalanta in the 2024 Coppa Italia final.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>The situation that AC Milan find themselves in could not be any worse as they have failed to win any trophies this season and have also managed to find themselves out of European football, all the while their bitter rivals Inter Milan could very well become European champions this summer, if they manage to beat Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final this weekend. Allegri will have a massive rebuild job on his hands as he looks to ressurect a fallen giant.</p>
