Fabrizio Romano reported aout Pioli and his next destination. After stopping working with AC Milan, Pioli hasn't chosen any team yet but it seems since Al Ittihad couldn't better good results during the last season, they want to start working with Pioli.
Al Ittihad is also trying to hire some superstar players for the next season and this can make Al Ittihad much stronger teams to race with the other teams like Al Hilal and Al Nassr while hiring Benzema during the last summer was not effective for Al Ittihad but this time they want to make a better coach to improve the team.

What is this Pioli-to-Al Ittihad rumour? Even for the Saudi league, it sounds fishy. Its not a surprise that Gallardo was fired. When you cant handle a team with Benzema on it, you're out. But Pioli? He wants to be a top boss and not just work in the Saudi league. I've heard that he's interested in the Premier League and wants to join a club with a lot of history and status. Really, who wouldnt?
If Al Ittihad gives him enough money, though, things will be different. Everyone knows that the Saudis are ready to spend a lot of money on famous people. But I'll tell you this: I'll eat my hat if Pioli goes through with that plan. Thats a promise.
