Mihajlovic in for sacked Inzaghi as Milan coach

AC Milan fired coach Filippo Inzaghi and immediately replaced him with Sinisa Mihajlovic on a two-year deal yesterday.

Milan informed Inzaghi he was unwanted earlier this month, but was hoping to terminate his contract under mutual terms. The talks apparently failed.

“AC Milan communicates that Filippo Inzaghi has been dismissed,” the club said in a statement. In his first season in charge, former Milan striker Inzaghi led the team to a dismal 10th-place finish. Serbia’s Mihajlovic has an option for a third season, at a reported 2.5 million euros (US$2.8 million) per season. The 46-year-old Mihajlovic coached Sampdoria for the past two seasons, leading the Genoa club to seventh this year.
