Ivan Gazidis Considering Swoop for Mauricio Pochettino as Next AC Milan Manager

AC Milan chief executive Ivan Gazidis wants Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino to replace Gennaro Gattuso if the Italian leaves the club at the end of the season.

The Rossoneri have endured a challenging season, with their form taking a huge dive in recent weeks. They have taken just one point from their last three games, leaving many fans calling for Gattuso to be replaced.

If their form does not improve, Milan are prepared to part ways with their manager, and Corriere della Serra claim that Gazidis wants Pochettino to replace him.

If Gattuso cannot lead Milan to either a top four finish in the Serie A or Coppa Italia glory, they will look to hire a new manager who can help restore them to their former glory, and Gazidis feels Pochettino would be the perfect man to do so.
