Pioli to leave at the end of the season

Stefano Pioli will leave his post as Milan boss at the end of the season, the club announced this morning.

The move was widely expected after a season in which the Rossoneri have disappointed. They currently lie second in Serie A, but 19 points behind city rivals Inter.

Pioli’s final game in charge will be tomorrow’s clash with Salernitana at San Siro.

A Milan statement read: “AC Milan and Stefano Pioli announce that the Mister will be departing after the end of the current season, after having been in charge of the First Team since October 2019.

“AC Milan extends heartfelt thanks to Stefano Pioli and his entire staff for leading the First Team over the past five years, securing an unforgettable League title and re-establishing AC Milan’s consistent presence in the top European competition. Stefano’s professionalism and human touch have significantly contributed to the growth of the squad, embodying the Club’s core values from day one.

“Stefano Pioli expresses his gratitude to AC Milan for the opportunity to be part of the history of this glorious Club. He is deeply thankful to the ownership, management, team, staff, and everyone at Milanello and Casa Milan for their support and outstanding commitment. He also extends a special thanks to the many fans who have passionately supported AC Milan over the years, demonstrating unwavering dedication.”
