Antonio Conte will reportedly take charge of AC Milan next season in a move that would see him oust title-winning manager Stefano Pioli.
Conte, who used to manage rivals Inter Milan, has been jobless since being sacked by Tottenham last year following a brutal tirade against his players.
Pioli's contract runs until June 2025 but he has come under increasing scrutiny this season, with the Rossoneri third in Serie A and detached from the title race.
Milan are willing to offer Conte a route back into management according to Telelombardia, a regional television outlet, via Football Italia.
