AC Milan are accelerating their plans for the future, with Ruben Amorim emerging as the top candidate to take over as manager. The Portuguese coach, formerly of Manchester United and Sporting CP, is well-regarded by the club's American owners, Redbird. Amorim's profile fits with the club's strategy of bringing in young, innovative talent.

The current situation suggests Amorim is ahead of other contenders, including Matthias Jaissle, for the managerial role. Meanwhile, the club is also searching for a new sporting director, with two candidates standing out. Ozek and Krosche are the frontrunners for the position, each bringing unique strengths to the table.

Krosche, currently at Eintracht, is known for his ability to discover and develop top talent, having worked with players like Kolo Muani and Ekitikè. Ozek, on the other hand, has impressed Redbird with his modern approach and knowledge of European markets, gained through his work at Leverkusen and Fenerbahce.

The coming days are expected to be crucial in determining the club's new leadership structure, with Amorim's appointment and the appointment of a sporting director high on the agenda.
