Gattuso gives Higuain update

AC Milan manager has revealed that Gonzalo Higuain has been left out the squad for the match against Genoa because he didn’t feel like the Argentine is in the right state of mind to play for the Rossoneri.

The Argentine has been linked with a move to Chelsea and he is said to be very close to it. And according to Gattuso, these stories have hampered the environment of the dressing room at the San Siro and he hopes to work hard in order to restore the balance.

“We spoke after the training session and I did not consider him ready for this game,” he said. “I accept his decision. Surely he could have done more and maybe we could have helped him fit in better.

“Right now we have to work with professionalism and determination, all these rumours have not helped us lately and we have to look ahead.”
