Milan Future in crisis, changes are coming: Bonera leaves the bench, team goes to Oddo

After the first team bench, the second team bench is also gone, a situation that tells the story of the Rossoneri misfortunes of this season at all latitudes. Daniele Bonera is no longer the coach of Milan Futuro , relieved of his duties after the bloody defeat on Sunday 23 February at home against Pescara. From one former senator to another: Massimo Oddo, his last experience in Padova in C at the end of last season, has been called in his place. Oddo - contract until 2026 - will find his former assistant coach Mauro Tassotti in the staff, called a couple of weeks ago to the bedside of the team stuck in the midst of the fight to avoid relegation.
Bonera obviously pays for the lack of results: after 28 games the Rossoneri have 22 points and are third from bottom, just three points behind Legnago who occupies the last position, which is the one that leads directly to D. Next Sunday there is the challenge against the Venetians (in Legnago), which for Milan therefore represents almost a sort of do-or-die. Whoever finishes between 16th and 19th place will instead face the playouts, and this is obviously the goal of the Devil (15th is eight points away, too many to reasonably think of climbing the rankings in the next ten games). Bonera certainly has the alibi of the first season of life of Milan Futuro, which coincided with his first experience on the bench, but in these cases the numbers kill any reasoning in the cradle: and a relegation to C would be equivalent to the drastic downsizing of a project for which the parent company has invested 12 million. Oddo arrives after Milan's attempt, in recent days, to involve Alberto Bollini, the current coach of the U19 Azzurri, who however was not released by the federation. The former Rossoneri full-back, in addition to various experiences in Serie B (Pescara, Crotone, Perugia, Spal) and an adventure in Serie A (Udinese), has already experienced Serie C at the helm of Padova in two distinct moments.
