A number of journalists predict that after all Leo will accept the offer forwarded by the Brazilian Federation.

Who do u believe will be our next coach?

Latest speculations:

Tassotti/Filippo Galli
Lippi

Have your say :)

Let's hope not Gullit. He is one of my favorite players but he is a lousy coach. Van BAsten is fair and Rijkaard is debateable. He won some silverware with Barca but that was a really good team.

i like leo as a person and as a scout for milan but i would not be too disturbed if he left as our coach. he did better than expected but expectations were low and he also made some mistakes.

much more important for future success is a good squad which we don't have and won't buy next summer.

Lippi is the best option for the current Milan roster. Given that no investment will be made in the summer. It is best to appoint him, and start negotiating with Canavarrr asap.

Lippi would be very much against the traditions since Berlusconi became the owner of the club. Indeed, Berlu has never brought in a coach who had already won either Serie A or Champions Cup/League.

The only two coaches he has signed that had won something semi-important before coming to Milan (Tabarez - Copa Libertadores and Terim - UEFA Cup) are also the two least successful coaches we've had.

I would be very disappointed should Leo leave as I think he has the potential to be a great manager of this club (with the necessary signings that he might have realized he won't get).

Capello would be great, but he won't come :depress:

Dinho is set to renew his contract :groan: Carlo won't come back.

hopefully leo stays..the fact that he has been liked with the Brazilian NT job clearly tells what he has achieved in just one year as a coach..but in case he dosent stay then..

1) Tassotti - Has been our assistant coach for very long and hence he deserves a shot..
2) Rijkaard
3) MVB

Lippi? No thanks
Capello? Yes please
Allegri? Not totally sold on him, but we could do worse
MVB? No
Gullit? No
Rijkaard? Better than the other two Dutch
Tassotti? Makes sense in a lot of ways, as long as he isn't just a yes man it could work well

I'd prefer to keep Leo than any of the above, but as the rumours grow it feels more likely that he'll leave. Cannot blame him wanting to coach his NT on home soil in 2014.

True. But I say if Berlu was taking care of him better, any desire of him wanting to coach Brazil would be minimal.

When the board keep attacking you for no apparent reason and then at the same time fail in delivering the players you request, leaving for a dream job back home for the World Cup is a simple decision.

I know we all like Leo, but it is no secret that Tassotti has been our coach this season anyway. If Leo leaves I think he would be great, particularly because he is interested in letting many of the valid players from the primavera make the transition.

Carlo Pellegatti claims that Leonardo already had his contract dissolved a few days ago...

I have a feeling that Tassotti will take over from Leo, even if I hope Leo will stay. If Leo leaves my personal choice would be Billy, even if that is not realistic for obvious reasons.

wow, that was quick. so with leo gone galli will be the second part of the duo with tassotti.

i'm sure galli will do the job as good as leo because mauro will help him as he has done with leo.

the deciding factor of our future success are the players available and the outlook is not too bright.

Leonardo, unsurprisingly, denies the rumours:

A.C. MILAN COMUNICATO UFFICIALE

MILANO - In riferimento alle notizie divulgate oggi relative a una sua presunta rescissione di contratto, l'allenatore del Milan Leonardo precisa che queste sono da intendersi totalmente prive di fondamento.
