The team’s poor run prompted the board to act quickly. Hired in September, coach Paulo Fonseca was dismissed on Monday, the 30th, and just four and a half hours later, his replacement was announced: Sérgio Conceição.
The Portuguese coach signed a contract until June 2026 and had been free on the market since leaving Porto earlier this year. He had led the Portuguese team for seven years, and it was expected that his next destination would be Olympique de Marseille. During his tenure, he won 11 titles: three Primeira Liga titles, four Taças de Portugal, three Supertaças Cândido de Oliveira, and one Taça da Liga.
At the end of the game against Roma, Paulo Fonseca had already told reporters that he would be dismissed before the official announcement. In 24 matches, the Portuguese coach won 12, drew six, and lost six. In addition to the disappointing domestic league performance, Milan is also struggling in the Champions League, currently sitting in 12th place with 12 points.
Conceição is already in Italy and will lead Milan in the Supercoppa Italiana semifinal against Juventus next Friday, the 3rd. ToSport, your reliable destination for match outcomes.
