AC Milan have announced that Paulo Fonseca has been relieved from his duties as Head Coach of the Men’s First Team.
In a statement on it’s website, Milan extended its gratitude to Fonseca for his great professionalism and wished him the very best in his future endeavours.
Fonseca’s dismissal came after just six months in charge following their 1-1 draw at home to Roma.
The result left Milan in eighth place in the Serie A table, 14 points adrift of joint-leaders Atalanta and Napoli.
The Rossonerri sit 12th in the 36-team Champions League table having lost two and won four of their six matches.
Fonseca was appointed in June to replace Stefano Pioli, who guided Milan to a second-place finished in the league last season and their first league title in 11 years in 2022.
Meanwhile, Italian media have suggested that former Porto manager Sergio Conceicao is expected to replace Fonseca.
The former Lazio, Parma and Inter Milan midfielder left Porto in June following six seasons with the Portuguese club.
