Milan Offer Glasner as Rangnick Negotiations Persist

Owner Gerry Cardinale is seeking a new coach and a technical director to rebuild the club's sporting structure and set recruitment priorities.

Overview

  • Milan have made a formal two-year offer to Oliver Glasner and his representatives have signalled willingness to accept while he waits for a final decision.
  • Club ownership moved quickly after the 2025-26 season by sacking Massimiliano Allegri and several senior executives and placing Gerry Cardinale and Zlatan Ibrahimovic at the centre of hires.
  • Ralf Rangnick remains a leading candidate to become Milan's technical director but he is asking for clear autonomy and the freedom to appoint his own staff before agreeing to join.
  • Reports link veteran free agent David Alaba to Milan and say his chance of signing would rise if both Glasner and Rangnick are appointed to lead the rebuild.
  • Alternative coaches including Mauricio Pochettino and Arne Slot are still being considered so Milan's next steps will depend on ownership resolving Rangnick's demands and completing talks with Glasner.
