What happened: Oliver Glasner will meet AC Milan early next week, likely Tuesday, as the club works to appoint a new manager, according to Fabrizio Romano. Talks with Andoni Iraola never advanced despite reports, with Iraola said to be holding out for a call from Liverpool.

Why it matters: Milan are accelerating their managerial search and now appear to be turning toward Glasner after the pursuit of Andoni Iraola failed to gain traction. Iraola's hesitation is tied to the Liverpool vacancy, which opened after the club announced the departure of head coach Arne Slot, leaving Milan unwilling to wait.

What to watch: Watch whether the expected Tuesday meeting produces an agreement with Glasner, and whether Liverpool's managerial decision resolves Iraola's situation either way.
