AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani is grooming Pippo Inzaghi for the head coaching role. Inzaghi is currently working in the youth system after hanging up his boots over the summer, but has already done enough to convince Galliani he has what it takes to take the top job.

Tuttosport says Galliani wouldn't blink if Inzaghi was immediately needed and no matter what happens with Massimiliano Allegri, the Rossoneri legend will eventually take charge of the first team.
