Italian club AC Milan have appointed Paulo Fonseca as their new manager.
The 51-year-old Portuguese coach, who managed French club Lille from 2022 to 2024, has signed a three-year contract running until 2027.
He replaces Stefano Pioli, who left AC Milan by mutual consent.
“I am proud to take on the role of AC Milan manager and I will work to honour this club and its great history,” said Fonseca.
“Together, we will strive for excellence and to write a new chapter of successes that I hope can be celebrated by our extraordinary fans.”
Fonseca left Lille by mutual consent after his team finished fourth in Ligue 1, missing out on a direct Champions League spot.
Lille also lost to Aston Villa on penalties in the quarter-finals of the Europa Conference League.
Fonseca previously managed Roma, Shakhtar Donetsk, and Porto.
He won the Portuguese Super Cup in 2013 with Porto and achieved the Ukrainian league and cup double three times with Shakhtar.
