According to MilanNews.it, ahead of the World Cup, Austrian fans displayed banners urging Ralph Rangnick to extend his contract during a final warm-up match against Tunisia. The banners read: "Ralph, Euro 2028 with you." The "islands" refer to the UK and Ireland, which will host the European Championship final in two years. After the match, the German manager stated he is performing well with the Austrian national team, but according to gazzetta.it, the situation is actually more complex. Had he intended to continue as a manager, he would have signed by now. Milan has reportedly proposed a Technical Director position to him, which he finds extremely interesting.

Rangnick met with Cardinale and Ibrahimović last week, and further contact with Milan in the coming days cannot be ruled out. He is highly attracted to the idea of taking over Milan's technical department, which would represent another significant challenge in his extensive managerial career. Further updates regarding his future are expected to be announced this week.
