Atalanta have sounded out AC Milan boss Filippo Inzaghi about possibly taking over the Orobici bench for next season.

The 41-year-old former Italian international had a promising start at the Rossoneri, but poor results since and a 10th place finish in the Serie A means that he is likely to be dismissed in the coming weeks.

Mediaset Premium reports that Inzaghi is open to coaching another Serie A team next season, and may be enticed to the club where he spent a prolific season as a player in the 1996/97 season.

Atalanta boss Edy Reja is yet to officially re-sign with the club, and consequently the Orobici have been looking around for other targets.

Inzaghi curiously, won what looks like to be last match as AC Milan boss against Atalanta on Saturday evening.
