Massimiliano Allegri appointed as new AC Milan manager

AC Milan have appointed Massimiliano Allegri as their new head coach, with the six-time Serie A winner returning for a second spell in charge of the Italian giants.

Allegri, who previously coached Milan from 2010 to 2014, replaces Sérgio Conceição who was sacked on Thursday.

The seven-time European champions are coming off a disappointing season, where they finished eighth in Serie A, 19 points behind champions Napoli, and missed out on a place in UEFA competition.

Milan will be hoping for a return to glory under Allegri, who led Milan to a Serie A title in 2011.

After leaving Milan, Allegri enjoyed two separate spells in charge of Juventus, where he won a further five Italian championships along with five Coppas Italia. He also twice led them to the Champions League final.

The 57-year-old left Juventus in controversial circumstances at the end of the 2023-24 season, two days after they beat Atalanta in the Coppa Italia final.
