Ivan Gazidis has suggested that Gennaro Gattuso’s tenure is almost over as Milan will ‘dedicate the next few days to analysis’.
Milan beat SPAL 3-2 on Sunday’s final round of Serie A but failed to qualify for the Champions League as Inter and Atalanta both won, and Gazidis refused to offer guarantees about Gattuso’s position.
“Despite tonight’s victory, we’re rather disappointed at having failed to qualify for the Champions League,” the CEO said after the game.
