AC Milan appoints familiar name as new captain

Massimiliano Allegri returns to lead the San Siro club from the 2025/26 season.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Massimiliano Allegri has signed a contract with AC Milan and is set to be announced as the head coach of the red and black striped team.

Allegri has just spent a year unemployed, after leaving Juventus. He led AC Milan from 2010-2014 and achieved success, including 1 Scudetto and 1 National Super Cup. After that, this coach moved to work at Juventus and helped the "Bianconeri" dominate Serie A with 5 consecutive national championships.

Allegri returns to Serie A.

Previously on May 29, Milan officially confirmed that they would not renew the contract with coach Sergio Conceicao, ending a short period of collaboration between the two sides.

In a statement posted on official platforms, the club expressed its sincere thanks to the Portuguese strategist and his staff for their dedication, professionalism and contributions to the team during the past time.

Despite only leading AC Milan for a short period of time, Conceicao still managed to make his mark when helping the "Rossoneri" win the National Super Cup this winter, the 50th title in the illustrious history of the San Siro club. This is considered a remarkable achievement, especially when he had to take over the team at a time of great turmoil, with a lot of pressure from both on and off the field.

Conceição's departure is seen as a necessary move for Milan, in the context that the team is looking for a longer-term strategy to restore its position in Serie A as well as the European arena.
