Milan could prepare a revolution, with Paolo Maldini and Zvonimir Boban sacked to give Ralf Rangnick full powers as coach and director of sport, claims Calciomercato.com.
The website claims that owners Elliott Management and CEO Ivan Gazidis, want to make sweeping changes to the structure of the club after what has been a poor start to the season by the Rossoneri.
Coach Marco Giampaolo lasted three months in the job before being sacked and replaced by Stefano Pioli.

The website claims that owners Elliott Management and CEO Ivan Gazidis, want to make sweeping changes to the structure of the club after what has been a poor start to the season by the Rossoneri.
Coach Marco Giampaolo lasted three months in the job before being sacked and replaced by Stefano Pioli.
Calciomercato.com suggest that Gazidis and Elliott are looking at former Stuttgart, Schalke and RB Leipzig coach Ralf Rangnick as a potential candidate for a position that’s unheard of in the Italian game.
Rangnick would have a role almost equivalent to the one Sir Alex Ferguson enjoyed at Manchester United. The German would be coach, chief scout and also director of sport of the Rossoneri, essentially having full autonomy over the playing side of the club.
Paolo Maldini and Zvonimir Boban would be relieved of their current roles, as there have been reports of differences in philosophies between the former two Milan players and Gazidis.
Rangnick left his role as coach of RB Leipzig at the end of last season and is currently head of development for the Red Bull organisation that owns Leipzig and Red Bull Salzburg in Austria.
