Motta earned a reputation as one of the finest young managers in the world after guiding Bologna to a fifth-place finish in the Serie A in 2023-24, and subsequently a spot in the Champions League. He was appointed by Juventus last summer, but was fired in March after just 42 games in charge. Now unemployed, the Italian becomes the latest manager to join the list of candidates being eyed by Milan to replace Conceicao.

Marseille boss Roberto De Zerbi is reportedly keen on a return to Italy and has caught the eye of the Rossoneri, while Antonio Conte has also been rumoured to leave Napoli and join Milan.
