The Rossoneri sacked Vincenzo Montella and appointed Gennaro Gattuso, but are already looking to the future.

Names including Antonio Conte of Chelsea and Zenit tactician Roberto Mancini have been mentioned as possible candidates.

Now the Corriere dello Sport adds another name, specifically Gasperini.

Atalanta Coach Gian Piero Gasperini is an option for the Milan bench next season, claims the Corriere dello Sport.

The Rossoneri sacked Vincenzo Montella and appointed Gennaro Gattuso, but are already looking to the future.

Names including Antonio Conte of Chelsea and Zenit tactician Roberto Mancini have been mentioned as possible candidates.

Now the Corriere dello Sport adds another name, specifically Gasperini.

He has worked wonders with Atalanta, finishing fourth in Serie A last season, while they have this term topped their Europa League group and reached the Coppa Italia Semi-Finals against Juventus.

Milan have already invested in several former Atalanta players, Franck Kessie and Andrea Conti, whose careers were really launched by Gasp.

It would be a return to San Siro for Gasperini, who had a very brief spell on the Inter bench in 2011, lasting only five games.

The main reason behind his dismissal was his insistence on playing three at the back, something that was tested and then abandoned at Milan this season.
