ROME:
Former AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti paid tribute to the current incumbent Massimiliano Allegri for winning the club’s first Serie A title in seven years. Milan had last lifted the league crown in 2004 under Ancelotti who moved to Chelsea in 2009. After Leonardo’s unsuccessful spell at Milan, Allegri took over at the beginning of this season and won the scudetto at the first attempt. “Massimiliano had clear ideas, he made the most of Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the early part of the season and exploited the experience of senior players towards the end,” said Ancelloti.
