“President Urbano Cairo welcomes Marco Giampaolo and his staff with the most cordial reception. Good work and always Forza Toro!”
The former player started his coaching career at Pescara in 2000 and moved from assistant to gain experience in Serie A and Serie B.
After spells at Cagliari, Siena, Catania, Cesena, Brescia, Empoli and Sampdoria, he moved to Milan ahead of 2019-20.
But he was replaced by Stefano Pioli after a horrid start to life at San Siro and has been without a job since the separation in October.
