The two most serious tracks would be those of the Portuguese Paulo Fonseca (Lille) and the Spaniard Julen Lopetegui (ex-Spain and Real Madrid and currently without a club). But the following names are also studied: Antonio Conte, Thiago Motta, Christophe Galtier, Marcelo Gallardo, Raffaele Palladino, Xavi, Francesco Farioli, Gian Piero Gasperini, Sergio Conceiçao and Guillermo Barros Schelotto.
The Red Devils soon without a coach? A great European makes eyes at Tedesco
The name of Mark van Bommel therefore also appeared in Italian newspapers. The Dutch T1 of Antwerp would be the preferred candidate of Zlatan Ibrahomovic, with whom he played for AC Milan in 2011-2012. The two also had the same agent, in the person of the late Mino Raiola. Zlatan is a sports advisor to AC Milan and his influence on decision-makers is growing. But the bosses of the current number 2 in Serie A have not yet made a decision.
Tedesco has not yet been contacted. The man with Italian and German nationality extended his contract with our Federation until the 2026 World Cup and he intends to remain faithful to the Devils. Since he has been at the head of Belgium, he has already received some much more concrete proposals from interesting clubs, but he did not even want to sit around the table. A departure from Tedesco therefore seems unlikely.
