Inter boss Frank de Boer was one of the candidates for the position of AC Milan boss, with Vincenzo Montella getting the job in the end.
AC Milan CEO Adriano Galliani admits his side considered appointing current Inter head coach Frank de Boer ahead of the 2016-17 campaign, before eventually opting for Vincenzo Montella instead.
De Boer was available after stepping down as Ajax boss and was heavily linked with a move to the Rossoneri, only for Milan to opt for ex-Fiorentina and Sampdoria head coach Montella on a two-year deal.
The Dutchman eventually ended up in Serie A after all, replacing Roberto Mancini at Inter last month, but could very well have been in charge of its city rival had things turned out differently.
