Despite news that Paulo Fonseca is inches away from becoming the new Rossonerri boss, the Italian media on Saturday report about the surprising talks with Lionel Scaloni

Out of the blue comes the news that Lionel Scaloni could become the new AC Milan coach despite Paulo Fonseca being considered at the top of the Rossonerri's list.

Stefano Pioli prepares to take on his final two matches in charge, with the one against Torino tonight being the first one. 

On the other hand, Lille's Fonseca was the leading candidate until today, surpassing Sergio Conceicao, Mark van Bommel, Julen Lopetegui and more. However, no final decision has been made yet.

And today, renowned Gazzetta dello Sport reports on Saturday that Milan have been in contact with the agents of Argentina coach Scaloni, who are interested in appointing the 2022 World Cup winner. No face-to-face meeting has been held yet, and he'll be away at the Copa America until July 14th. Therefore, the chances of seeing Messi's Albiceleste boss in the San Siro dugout are probably not that serious, but who knows...
