According to Corriere della Sera, via Football-Italia, AC Milan CEO Ivan Gazidis has identified Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino as the ideal candidate to replace Gennaro Gattuso at San Siro this summer.
Milan are currently fourth in the Serie A league table after 30 games, but the likes of Atalanta, Lazio, AS Roma and Torino are currently hot on their heels for the spot, and keeping Gattuso will only be considered should they qualify for the Champions League.
Pochettino definitely impressed former Arsenal chief Gazidis during his time in North London, and he is keen on luring the Argentine to Italy ahead of next season.
