AC MILAN OVERHAUL: Allegri announces he's leaving

Massimiliano Allegri has announced he will be leaving AC Milan. The coach says this Christmas and New Year will be his last as Milan coach.

He told La Gazzetta dello Sport: "I leave a good team that earned the love of the fans. A team that with a few adjustments will have a future.

"The real regret is that I never had all the players at my disposal. The first choice full-backs were practically never available at the same time. We didn't make mistakes in the medical staff, as we consulted with some of the best specialists in the world and it makes me angry that our doctors are under attack.

"I have always worked with enthusiasm and will continue right to the end. Why am I leaving? I decided the day it was made official I'd remain for one more season. I liked the idea of staying and finishing the job, but four years in one club is a long time."
