AC Milan legend Paolo Maldini was sorry to see Claudio Ranieri sacked by Leicester City.
Ranieri lifted the Premier League title with the miraculous Leicester City only nine months ago and was sacked this week.
Maldini told Radio Due: “Ranieri made history and nobody can cancel that. It'll be tough for anyone to repeat it, especially in modern football, which has so little gratitude.
“Mind you, gratitude should not be expected or demanded. Professionals above all do this work for passion. Firing a Coach is easier than getting rid of 30 players, clearly. Many times the rapport is damaged and clubs make some often hasty decisions.
“The contribution of a Coach is underestimated, as many of them really do write the history not just of their own clubs, but of football as a whole."
