Milan – Allegri won, long live Allegri. With the championship drawing to a close, if the Juve coach strengthens his position banishing the rumors – external ones, because only explicit confirmations from the club – there are still many changes on the bench on the horizon. Napoli first of all, then Milan and Fiorentina: the coaching market promises to be very interesting. If Inter, who are on their way to winning the Scudetto, will armor Simone Inzaghi, for the outgoing Italian champions Napoli, after a season full of changes (three: Garcia, Mazzarri and Calzona), it is time for refoundation. President Aurelio de Laurentiis has a name at the top of his wish list, Antonio Conte, who would relaunch the Azzurri's ambitions after a disastrous year.
The prices of the former Genoa player Thiago Motta are very high: his Bologna is making sparks and is headed towards qualifying for the next Champions League. The coach's contract with the Bologna club expires next year and Juventus has recently been on the trail of the Italian-Brazilian: Allegri has another year on his contract, the Italian Cup together with qualification for the Champions League zone are the ways to strengthen the relationship with the Bianconeri, questioned by the fans in the long series of negative results that made the second round lackluster.
The fate of Motta is also linked to the Champions League qualification and Bologna claims everything for itself: AC Milan's attention also falls on the former midfielder even if Stefano Pioli, whose contract expires on 30 June 2025, by consolidating second place in the rankings is simultaneously securing his future.
The adventure of the former Spezia coach Vincenzo Italiano at Fiorentina it seems to have reached the end of the line. The coach is another of the names on de Laurentiis' list, but not only that. Raffaele Palladino's future at the helm of Monza is uncertain, despite a good championship. If there will be a future for Daniele De Rossi on the Roma bench it's still a puzzle: called upon to act as ferryman after Josè Mourinho's dismissal, the former Giallorossi midfielder was able to reverse the direction of the Giallorossi and confirmation at this point doesn't seem so unlikely, especially if it came qualification for the Champions League.
All eyes also on Alberto Gilardino: his Genoa is having a very good season, his contract is expiring and he is sharing the plans of the rossoblù club.
Lazio has bet on Igor Tudor, who was entrusted with the team after the resignation of Maurizio Sarri. Gasperini is certain to remain at Atalanta, who is climbing the ranking of the longest-serving coaches on the same bench. Instead, the fate of Claudio Ranieri (Cagliari), Davide Nicola (Empoli), Eusebio Di Francesco (Frosinone), Gabriele Cioffi (Udinese), Luca Gotti (Lecce), Marco Baroni (Verona) passes through salvation. In a summer that promises to be full of upheavals, there is a symbol of continuity represented by the Spaniard. Compared to Bayern and Liverpool, Xabi Alonso has instead decided to stay at Bayer Leverkusen. And, looking abroad, Roberto De Zerbi has a contract with Brighton that expires in 2026, and some top clubs, not just the Premier League, are following him.
