MILAN (AFP) - AC Milan are set to sack coach Marco Giampaolo after a dreadful start to the season, according to multiple reports in Italy on Tuesday.
The former European giants are 13th in Serie A -- three points above the relegation zone.
Giampaolo, 52, replaced Gennaro Gattuso during the summer, but the former Sampdoria boss has suffered four defeats in his first seven games, including a 2-0 loss to city rivals Inter.
Milan went on to lose their next two matches against Torino and Fiorentina before last weekend's 2-1 victory at Genoa.
Former Inter Milan coach Luciano Spalletti is the 18-time Italian champions' first choice to replace Giampaolo, according to Gazzetta Dello Sport and Sky Sport Italia.
