Bournemouth Boss Tipped as AC Milan’s Allegri Replacement with Contract Offer on the Table.

AC Milan's New Head Coach Search

According to Novyny.live: Italian giants AC Milan have kicked off their hunt for a new head coach following the dismissal of Massimiliano Allegri. Leading the race for the role is Andoni Iraola, who has already been presented with a contract proposal running through 2029.

Iraola, 43, made a name for himself during his tenure at Bournemouth, where he guided the club to its first-ever qualification for European competition. Reports indicate his annual salary at Milan would be roughly €4 million per season. Notably, Milan failed to secure a Champions League spot last season—a key factor that pushed the club toward a coaching shake-up.

Offers and Expectations

Beyond Milan, Iraola has also drawn interest from several other clubs, including:

• Crystal Palace
• Newcastle
• Bayer Leverkusen

Milan’s leadership is betting that a fresh face on the sidelines will help steer the club back into Europe’s elite.

The coaching overhaul at AC Milan signals the club’s determination to climb back to the top of European football. Appointing Andoni Iraola, a manager with proven top-flight experience, could be a pivotal move to turn the team’s fortunes around. A strong start from the new boss will be essential to rebuilding trust among fans and the board alike.
