Director Pupi Avatiinterviewed on Un giorno da pecora su Rai Radio Unoattacks harshly the Milanof which he is famously a fan, and in particular the technician Stefano Pioli: “I no longer have a love story with this Pioli. The moment they liquidated Maldini in a ruthless and inhuman way, Stefano Pioli didn’t say a word, he remained motionless sitting in that armchair, he wasn’t grateful towards who had done so much for him. I can’t bear the lack of gratitude. I can’t support this Milan anymore because this Pioli is there, as long as Pioli is there I can’t, I hope sooner or later he leaves us, not on earth , not humanly. When Milan plays now I always support against them.”
In the past, however, the Rossoneri director and fan had had honeyed words towards the Scudetto coach: “I am authentically in love with Pioli, he reminds me a lot of my father”, were his words on the same broadcast but in May 2022. A radical change of thought, based on the failure to take a position regarding Paolo’s farewell Maldini.
