AC Milan Dismisses Paulo Fonseca After Six-Month Tenure
AC Milan has officially parted ways with head coach Paulo Fonseca following a series of underwhelming performances, culminating in a 1-1 draw against AS Roma.
AC Milan has terminated the contract of head coach Paulo Fonseca after just six months in charge. The decision comes in the wake of a 1-1 draw with AS Roma, which left the Rossoneri in eighth place in Serie A, 14 points behind leaders Atalanta. The club issued a brief statement expressing gratitude for Fonseca's professionalism and wishing him well in future endeavors.
Fonseca, who was appointed in June 2024 as the successor to Stefano Pioli, struggled to deliver consistent results during his short tenure. Under his leadership, Milan managed only two wins in their last seven league matches, leading to growing dissatisfaction among the club's hierarchy and supporters.
Reports suggest that former Porto manager Sergio Conceição is the frontrunner to replace Fonseca. If appointed promptly, Conceição's debut could be against Juventus in the Supercoppa Italiana semi-final on January 3, potentially pitting him against his son, Francisco Conceição, who is currently on loan at Juventus from Porto.
This managerial change reflects Milan's ambition to revitalize their season and secure a higher position in both domestic and European competitions. The club's management is hopeful that new leadership will reinvigorate the squad and improve performance in the crucial months ahead.
