AC Milan manager Massimiliano Allegri, has given a clear hint that he
will leave the San Siro next year, after admitting that 2013 will be
his “last Christmas” at the club.
Allegri took charge of the Rossoneri in 2010 and clinched the Serie A
title in his first season, but since then the Italian club’s fortunes
have changed dramatically.
This season, Milan is already 17 points behind leaders Juventus and might not qualify for any European competition next year.
“I do not know who will be the new coach, but it is a problem that
does not concern me. Of course, this is my last Christmas at AC Milan,”
the Italian said when quizzed over the possiblity of former Milan
midfielder Clarence Seedorf replacing him.
“I decided to stay on for another season. I liked the idea of staying on and finishing the job, but four years with one club is many.”
The 46-year-old coach, however refused to throw in the towel on securing European football via the Italian Cup.
“It’s very difficult. We are 17 points behind third place,” he added.
“But we have to chase and improve our position in the table. All this can serve well as an incentive to do well. There is still the Italian Cup, which is still gives us a good possibility to remain in Europe.”
