AC Milan are set to hand coach Massimiliano Allegri an improved contract.
After winning the Scudetto at his first attempt, Allegri will be rewarded by Milan with a new deal through to 2014.
Allegri turns 44 today and declared: "I believe in this AC Milan, we can win the league and reach the Champions League final.
"We've started a cycle. Inter is still the most dangerous rival in the championship but we are the favorites for the Scudetto."
Allegri also promised Zlatan Ibrahimovic's on-field discipline concerns will not be repeated this season.
"I've never seen Ibra so serene and relaxed, this season he will handle things differently."
