Thiago Motta was also under consideration, but he looks much more likely to join Juventus.Last but not least, Porto’s Sergio Conceicao is still reportedly under consideration, but previous reports indicate that it was his agent, Jorge Mendes, rather than Milan, who is pushing for that deal.##NAJAVA_MECA_8079483####EDITORS_CHOICE##Therefore, it’s not that surprising the Italian giants turned to the former Roma tactician Fonseca as a replacement for Stefano Pioli. He could also help the club land the Canadian international Jonathan David, who is set to become available on the transfer market. Recent reports suggest securing his services will still take around €45m.Veteran Olivier Giroud will leave the club upon the expiry of his contract after the end of the season, to join LAFC in the MLS.
