In the afternoon of SkySport 24 the journalist Peppe Di Stefano spoke from outside MIlanello talking about the emotions that were experienced today by Stefano Pioli, players and staff. These are his statements.
“Today was the day of goodbyes, of emotion. Many tears that Simon Kjaer, Olivier Giroud and above all Stefano Pioli shed because he leaves Milan, together with Milan, this morning in the press release. It is not specified whether it is a consensual termination, which is not in fact technically it is not an exemption. They said goodbye, and then we will see what will happen in the next few days regarding the new coach of Milan, and we have said that the chosen one for some time is Paulo Fonseca Stefano Pioli today gathered all the Milanello employees, doctors, cooks, warehouse workers, physiotherapists, maintenance workers, players, all on the sidelines before the coach, between a few smiles and a few tears he said thank you, because clearly the upgrade was Milan did it with him and he did it together with Milan. He had never won and he did it well, he had never won the Scudetto and he did it with Milan, he brought Milan back to the Champions League for four consecutive years. League and they were clearly moving moments. Among other things, today was his last day at Milanello. As we anticipated in recent days he will not go to Australia, he will train Daniele Bonera for that very short experience. He also greeted Giroud as well as Stefano Pioli. They stopped here outside Milanello because then sometimes the belly of the fans, often, in the most complicated moments, who does it blame? With the lightning rod, which was Stefano Pioli. But they acclaimed him here today and they will do so again tomorrow at San Siro because inevitably the balance remains more positive than ever compared to what he has done in recent years. Together with Maldini and Massara, the managers who chose him together with Bonan. He took Milan between sixth and seventh place and still brought them back to the Champions League for four consecutive seasons, once winning the Scudetto. So we have to give credit to what he did. Now the cycle was probably over, and everyone noticed it, Milan and the coach himself noticed it.”
