On Tuesday, Gennaro Gattuso walked away from AC Milan after 18 months in charge. That was because of their fifth-place finish in Serie A this season which meant that they miss out on a Champions League spot for next season.

There is a link at the San Siro for Wenger. Former Arsenal Chief Executive Ivan Gazidis works at the club. He left the Gunners in 2018 to take up a similar role with the Italians. Massimiliano Allegri who just left Juventus is also in single figures.

Who will Italians attract?

So who will the club be able to attract without Champions League football next season again? The likes of Jose Mourinho, Diego Simeone and Rafa Benitez are out there as 33/1 odds options* (betting odds taken from Betfair on May 28th, 2019 at 10:25 pm)

The early Next AC Milan Manager betting market looks to be a pretty wide open affair. Lazio’s Simone Inzaghi is the early 5/1 favourite followed by Sampdoria’s Marco Giampaolo at 7/2* (betting odds taken from Betfair on May 28th, 2019 at 10:25 pm).

Then there is quote the jump out to Monaco manager Leonardo Jardim at 7/1 odds* (betting odds taken from Betfair on May 28th, 2019 at 10:25 pm).

Jardim a good fit for San Siro vacancy

But actually, the Monaco boss is a good fit for the job. After being replaced at Monaco by Thierry Henry, he was then brought back to rescue them from relegation this season, which he achieved. Last month, his name had been linked with a potential move to the San Siro and at those odds, he looks a pretty good price to jump ship to the Italian top flight. Monaco narrowly avoided relegation issues in Ligue 1 this season.
