- Story Text: AC Milan dismissed manager Filippo Inzaghi on Tuesday (June 16) after a disappointing season in which the side finished tenth in Serie A and failed to qualify for Europe.
Inzaghi, who spent ten years at the club as a player including helping them win the 2007 Champions League, struggled throughout much of a campaign that brought their lowest number of wins since 2001.
"AC Milan communicate that Filippo Inzaghi has been discharged of his responsibilities as first team coach. The club thank him for his work," the club said in a statement on their website.
Serbian Sinisa Mihajlovic, who stepped down as Sampdoria coach earlier this month, is among the favourites to take the job. - Copyright Holder: FILE REUTERS (CAN SELL)
