Moretto: Renewal ‘highly unlikely’ for Conceicao as Milan exit looms – “99.9%”
Sergio Conceicao’s contract with AC Milan will expire in the summer and it’s 99.9% certain that it won’t be renewed, according to Matteo Moretto and Fabrizio Romano.
Conceicao joined Milan in late December, following the sacking of Paulo Fonseca, and an initial six-month deal was signed. There is an option to extend the contract for another season but given the continued struggles on the pitch, it seems increasingly unlikely.
According to Matteo Moretto, speaking on Fabrizio Romano’s channel, Milan have more or less decided to hire a new manager for next season. The aforementioned clause can only be triggered by the Rossoneri and as things stand, they want their new sporting director to choose a head coach as well.
A renewal is thus ‘highly unlikely’ for Conceicao, as Moretto continues, and sources close to the manager are already saying that his future will be elsewhere. All things considered, a farewell at the end of the season is ‘99.9%’ certain, as Moretto concludes.
Given that Milan need to make fundamental changes to their operations, it makes sense to entrust the sporting director with the task of picking a new manager. It’s the only way to avoid any potential conflicts down the line.
