Gianni Rivera, historic number 10 of Milan and the national team, does not hide his disappointment at not having been invited to the Nations League match between Italy and Germany, scheduled for this evening at San Siro.
Intervened in the broadcast A Sheep Day On Radio1, the former Golden Ball winner commented with irony: “It seems that no one remembered that I played for Italy and for Milan”The former Golden Boy then spoke about the management of the Rossoneri club by the American owners: “They have a lot of money, but they don't know how to surround themselves with capable people”, he declared, stressing that Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who recently joined the management, “He understands more about football than them, but maybe they don't listen to him”.
When asked who he would choose as coach in place of Conception, Rivera joked: “I would have gone. I have the license, if they wanted someone who understands football, I am available”. Finally, a comment on Rafael Leão: “He's a great player, but they could use him better to make him perform better”.
