AC Milan assistant coach Mauro Tassotti admits he didn't get along with Clarence Seedorf during his short time in charge. Tassotti admits he was ready to leave, himself, before Seedorf was replaced by Pippo Inzaghi.
"It wasn't an easy relationship," he told reporters. "But that is all in the past so it's useless talking about it.
"I haven't spoken to him since it happened. I tried to work with him in the best way possible by putting myself at his disposal.
"But you have to feel like it's a collaboration, and feel easy working together - it didn't feel like that.
"I was very close to leaving Milan.
"But then I was told that there would be a new man coming in and I was wanted as part of the coaching staff.
"I spoke with Pippo and with the club and decided to stay after that."
