Two names emerge who could fit Milan’s ‘Mister X’ secret – the details

Stefano Pioli’s potential AC Milan successors have seen their names spread across the media for months. However, there is a coach, maybe several, who has been under the radar. He is ‘Mister X’.

Everyone knows the inevitable for Pioli, but nothing is known about his successor, currently. Names come in a constant stream, waiting to write themselves as the potential candidate who will be selected for the next Milan coach, but none have been selected thus far.

There is one coach or several, that has not been revealed, though, Mister X. Nothing is known about what this signifies, but this is likely a profile, rather than a particular person. The profile will be similar to what the Rossoneri want, but without the backlash of a name being revealed.

Today, though, MilanNews have attempted to crack the code, and have offered some suggestions about who the title could fit.

The first that could be identified as Mister X is Jacob Neestrup. A Danish coach who took Copenhagen to the knockout stages of the Champions League, beating Manchester United in the process. Copenhagen are renowned for their model of buying low and selling high, with a view for younger talent.

Another that could fit this profile is Matthias Jaissle, the manager of Al Ahli in the Saudi Pro League. The German coach is well known for his work with RB Salzburg, and he faced the Rossoneri last season with the club.
