AC Milan held conversations with two potential candidates recently as they hope to hire a new sporting director in the not too distant future. As we reported and as is being widely reported in the Italian media, Milan intend to hire a new director to insert into the management, allowing Geoffrey Moncada to return to being predominantly a chief scout. According to Sky, last week there were meetings and telephone contacts between Gerry Cardinale, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and the possible future sporting directors of Milan, namely Igli Tare and Fabio Paratici. Next week there will be a decision because the club…
The Commanders have made it very clear since after the season wrapped up in the NFC Championship game against the Eagles that they’d be agressive in offseason moves. After the rookie season former No. 2 overall pick Jayden Daniels had, it makes complete sense and almost mandatory for Dan Quinn to do so. Daniels put together a historic rookie season throwing 25 touchdowns and 2,568 yards with 891 yards on the ground. With a bright future answered at the quarterback position, Washington is looking to add talent around Daniels and looks like they have started that process early. On Saturday…
Manchester City have reportedly entered the race to sign AC Milan left-back Theo Hernandez, who is also a target for Real Madrid, claims a report from Fichajes. It must be noted that the French defender remains under contract with the Serie A giants, but his current situation at San Siro is far from ideal, increasing the likelihood of a transfer in the summer. Milan are dealing with challenges both on and off the pitch, which has created uncertainty around several players, including the experienced left-back. Despite being a crucial figure in their defensive setup, the club might have no choice…
Toto Wolff concedes he’s worried that Mercedes have lost their unique advantage that saw their car thrive in colder conditions. The Formula 1 grid is currently in Bahrain for pre-season testing as they look to get a gauge of where they are at for the upcoming season. The weather in Bahrain has been unusually cold, which previously would’ve seen the Silver Arrows perform well. They’ve entered a new era with George Russell and Andrea Kimi Antonelli now their two drivers and Wolff believes they should be “two seconds quicker than everyone else” when the weather drops, as was the case…
Milan is currently seeing the Champions League through binoculars. After four consecutive seasons of qualifying for Europe’s top competition, the Rossoneri could be left out of the battle as a result of a season that is increasingly looking like a failure. The problem is that at the moment—and especially if another negative result comes tonight against Lazio—even a Europa League spot would be at risk. A Milan side completely out of European competitions, after spending so much and with a squad that, on paper, is of high quality, would be truly unacceptable. For this reason, La Gazzetta dello Sport headlined…
The match will not be an easy one, especially with the Rossoneri’s current form as the Champions League dream is fading with the latest negative result. That is why winning against the Biancocelesti is a must. Here’s the lineup that head coach Sergio Conceicao could deploy against Marco Baroni’s outfit at San Siro: Milan 4-2-3-1: Maignan; Walker, Thiaw, Pavlovic, Theo; Fofana, Reijnders; Musah, Pulisic, Leao; Gimenez.
In recent weeks, there has already been talk of “must-win games” and “last chances” for Milan, which has been chasing for a long time in an attempt to break into the top four spots in the league—positions that would secure qualification for the next Champions League. With the defeat against Bologna, an already difficult situation has become even more complicated. Tonight’s match at San Siro against Lazio truly feels like the very last opportunity to keep their hopes alive for as long as possible. For this reason, this morning’s edition of Tuttosport headlines: “Conceição, last chance.” The subheading reads: “Milan…
Sergio Conceição does not give up. “We want to win, win, and win. Due to our own mistakes or those of others that we cannot control (the referees, ed.), we haven’t managed to, but we continue working to achieve results. My goal is to create the right spirit in the locker room: we have won a title, which may be devalued, but it remains a title nonetheless; we are still in the running for the Coppa Italia, and we have twelve league matches to earn as many points as possible. We will give 1,000% in every match, hoping not to…
Kyle Walker was spotted leaving a Milan nightclub with two women the day after his wife Annie Kilner returned to the UK with their four children. England international Walker is fighting to save his marriage to long-time partner Kilner, but is also being left in Italy by himself for long periods. His family are back in Great Britain after being spotted shopping in Milan. Walker has been hitting the town without them. The Sun claims that the 34-year-old defender, who is taking in a loan spell at San Siro after bidding farewell to Premier League champions Manchester City, “got touch-feely”…
The possibility of the Pittsburgh Steelers taking a quarterback in the first round is “slim to none,” per Tony Pauline of Sportskeeda. The team has told people at the NFL Scouting Combine they are not impressed with this year’s QB class. The current sense is the team wants to move forward with Justin Fields, according to Pauline. “Seven people who met with the team tell me the sense is that Pittsburgh hopes to move forward with Justin Fields, who they wanted to win the starting job last season. Of course, that means they would have to sign the 2021 first-round…
