Paulo Fonseca’s stint at AC Milan lasted just 200 days. Last night, after a 1-1 home draw against AS Roma, he was sacked, and his successor will be Fonseca’s compatriot Sergio Conceicao. Fonseca’s legacy is mediocre: 12 victories, six wins and six draws; 12 points from six Champions League matches, and sitting in the eighth place in Serie A. On top of all that, he had a bad relationship with some of the players like Rafael Leao or Theo Hernandez, he sidelined Fikayo Tomori… There was no way he could get away.Leao’s subtle dig at Fonseca and MilanAlthough he had a contract worth €2,500,000 net per season until 2027, Fonseca won’t receive all the money that would have been due to him until then. There was a clause in the contract that said Fonseca would get just a third of the contract if he was fired within the first six months.##NAJAVA_MECA_8598436##Although he joined the club on June 13, his contract officially started on July 1. As he has not completed six months at the club, Fonseca will earn only a third of the contract. He is leaving Milan with €2,500,000 euros more in his pocket, while the mentioned clause cost him an additional €5,000,000 euros that he could have earned if he stayed on the wheel for just two more days, until January 1.
