The Swede sends a clear message on Milan’s coaching position and dismisses rumors linking him to Conte.
If Stefano Pioli has just stated that he feels ‘annoyed,’ yet also ‘not bothered’ and ‘not worried’ by the rumors about his position โ particularly the link to Conte โ Zlatan Ibrahimovic, has addressed these rumors giving serenity to his coach. On Pioli, the Swede was very formal, unequivocal, and absolutely direct: ‘Pioli is our coach, and we are very content with him.’ In short, Ibra supports Pioli.
Zlatan senses, reads, and sees scenarios where he is associated with the possible arrival of Antonio Conte, and to those close to him, he vigorously explains that he doesn’t understand the reason for it, considering his last contact with Antonio dates back to 2016. A relationship that hasn’t been renewed for eight years, in other words. In this context, all the scenarios circulating in recent weeks are firmly labeled as gossip by the Swede.
