Serie A News

AC Milan have appointed Massimiliano Allegri as their new head coach, with the six-time Serie A winner returning for a second spell in charge.

AC Milan fired Sergio Conceicao as expected on Thursday following a disappointing season that saw the Rossoneri fail to qualify for Europe.

The first transfer window is set to open across Europe on June 1, so what are the top clubs planning? Who comes in? Who will go?

Roma accused Nicolò Zaniolo of hospitalising two of their youth players while intoxicated in what they termed "violent and unjustifiable behaviour."

The Napoli squad, including Antonio Conte, Scott McTominay and Romelu Lukaku meet Pope Leo XIV in Vatican City after winning the Serie A title.
