Report Conte is Paratici’s priority for Milan

Tuttosport newspaper reports that if Fabio Paratici becomes the new Milan sporting director, he will try to reunite with Antonio Conte at San Siro.

Paratici held talks with Milan CEO Giorgio Furlani earlier this week, and multiple sources, including Sky Sport Italia, see the ex-Juventus and Tottenham director as one of the frontrunners for the Milan sporting director role.

According to Tuttosport newspaper, Paratici already has clear ideas for developing Milan in 2025-26, and the starting point would be Conte’s appointment as the new head coach.

The Italian tactician is under contract with Napoli until 2027, but has also been linked with Juventus and Italian media refuse to rule out a summer exit.

Tuttosport insists that Conte is not entirely happy with the lack of replacement for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia during the January window, so he’s keeping all options open regarding his future.

Conte already denied being unhappy about the Kvaratskhelia situation in February, saying he was focused on Napoli’s long-term project.

The ex-Italian midfielder has already worked with Paratici at Juventus, winning three consecutive Serie A titles in 2012, 2013 and 2014.
