AC Milan hire Allegri as coach
AFP | Milan Massimiliano Allegri has been hired as the new coach of AC Milan following the sacking of Sergio Conceicao, the Serie A club said yesterday. 'AC Milan is pleased to announce that Massimiliano Allegri has been appointed as the Head Coach of the men's first team,' said Milan in a statement. Milan did not reveal details of the deal but Italian media widely report that Allegri has signed a two-year contract worth five million euros a season, with the option to extend for a further two years. Allegri has become the fourth coach in a year for Milan, who finished this past Serie A season in eighth place and outside the European places. The 57-year-old led Milan to the 2011 Scudetto in his first stint in charge, between 2010 and 2014. He won five more league titles in two spells at Juventus.

A list of the past European champions before Saturday's Champions League final
MUNICH (AP) — Paris Saint-Germain is going for its first Champions League title when it takes on Inter Milan in the final on Saturday. Inter is going for its fourth European crown and first since winning the 2010 trophy. The Italian club also won back-to-back titles in 1964 and '65 when the competition was still known as the European Cup.

Marseille won the first title of the Champions League era in 1993 and is still the only European champion from France. PSG is bidding to become the second. If Inter wins in Munich on Saturday, the Italian team would move level with Ajax with four European Cup titles, behind only Barcelona with five, Bayern Munich and Liverpool with six, AC Milan with seven, and Real Madrid with the record, 15.
