AC Milan appear to be pushing legend Franco Baresi out of the club.
Gazzetta dello Sport says Baresi has been informed in recent days he must leave his Primavera coaching job, by the club's juniors chief Paolo Taveggia.
Milan are investing more in their junior setup in preparation for UEFA's new foreigner limits. Baresi's job will be taken by his former teammate, Filippo Galli.
Galli said: "To be chosen for this job makes me happy, naturally. But I am also disappointed for Franco Baresi.
"You can always learn new things working with the juniors and I'm sure I will work closely with Franco."
Indeed, while Silvio Berlusconi remains Milan president, Baresi will have a place at the club.
Today, Taveggia insisted the switch was done in consultation with Baresi and his approval.
