Capello worried: "Amorim, double somersault in absence — Milan confused; Serie A unknown"
16 June 2026·6 min read·Samuel Ortega
For Fabio Capello, the appointment of Ruben Amorim at Milan is a "double somersault" — both a risk for the coach and the rossoneri while there are doubts about his Serie A experience.
Fabio Capello is worried about the appointment of Ruben Amorim as the new coach of AC Milan, and he called it a "double somersault" — for the Portuguese and for the rossoneri. This is what the former manager of Milan, Real Madrid and the England national team said in an interview for Gazzetta dello Sport.
According to Capello, the selection of Amorim after the departure of Max Allegri reflects the "confusione" within the club. He noted that there were many names for the position — of different nationalities, styles and ideas — which he said showed a lack of clear direction in Milan.
Capello went on to say that the Amorim he saw in Lisbon made a good impression, "but his work in Manchester must also be taken into account." He added that "I don't know, it's like it's all left to chance," indicating skepticism about the selection process.

According to Capello, "at United he was not able to get into the players' minds; at Milan, he had to do that."
Capello also emphasized that the people and squad that will be in Amorim's hands will play a big role: "The difference will also be seen in the people he will have available." At the end, he again compared the situation to a big risk: "I can say it was a somersault for both. The Rossoneri hired a trainer who did not know the championship and he... had to recover after a failed experience."
The talks come as Amorim is expected to sign a contract that will run until 2028, with the possibility of an additional year, according to the report.
