Rossoneri Round-up for 29 March: Gattuso’s contract is Milan’s “Easter Egg”

Mirabelli sounded optimistic about getting Gennaro Gattuso’s new deal getting done.

Mirabelli was quoted as saying about the status of the new contract:

We are closing on Easter and are preparing a gift. We could find Gattuso’s contract renewal inside our Easter egg. I don’t think there will be any issues.

I’ve been telling you for some time, although perhaps you only know him as a player, that Gattuso will be one of the most important Coaches of the next few years, so it’s only right that Milan keep hold of him.

We are working to start a new era with Gattuso, because we believe he is the right Coach for a Milan that must be a protagonist over the next few years.

The important thing is that it’ll be done, not the timing, as we all want it.

So while a new contract hasn’t actually been signed yet, but it appears that it’s only a matter of time until it does get signed, which is a relief.
