Ibrahimovic Considers Immediate AC Milan change After Liverpool defeat

AC Milan boss Paulo Fonseca could be on the brink of being fired after his side suffered a 3-1 defeat to Liverpool in the Champions League.

The Italian heavyweights initially led with a goal from Christian Pulisic but couldn’t hold back the tide as the Premier League powerhouse roared back to secure an easy win.

This blow has left Fonseca teetering on the edge just before the high-stakes clash in the upcoming Milan derby, with rumors swirling that another disappointing performance might see him ousted. Fresh reports suggest that Zlatan Ibrahimovic, senior adviser at the club, is already touching base with Edin Terzic, previously of Borussia Dortmund, as a possible replacement.

Sky Germany marks Terzic, once eyed by AS Roma, as a potential successor if Fonseca’s tenure is cut short, only months post-his arrival ordained by Milan’s hierarchy, even though we are only a few games into the new campaign. It’s been a rocky introduction to Italian football, with a lean five-point haul across his first four Serie A outings and the midweek defeat adding to the pressure on the ex-Lille manager.

Assuming an administrative mantle since December 2023, Ibrahimovic set the record straight before Liverpool’s meeting: “I am the boss and I am in charge, all the others work for me.”

Fonseca was candid in his post-match analysis, expressing disappointment at how his side capitulated after conceding Liverpool’s second goal by Virgil van Dijk just before half-time. Dominik Szoboszlai sealed the result in the second period.
