Milan posted in their official website that “We are very grateful to Mr. Montella and his staff for all the work done up to today, their commitment and professionalism.”
Lasciare il Milan fa molto male, ho cercato e provato a dare tutto me stesso per questa società ma accetto la decisione presa. Voglio ringraziare i giocatori e voi tifosi per i momenti belli che abbiamo passato insieme sperando che il Milan arrivi là in alto dove gli compete. Io evidentemente ho fallito ma continuerò a tifare per questi colori🔴⚫ #Thanks #ForzaMilan
In Instagram he posted “Leaving Milan is very painful, I tried to give all I have got, but I accept the decision which has been taken. I evidently failed, but I will keep on supporting them.”
AC Milan now need to some improvement in results if they want to finish in the European qualification places. Also speculation in Italy says that Milan will not be admitted to either the Champions League or the Europa League due to financial irregularities over the takeover of the club in last April.
