AC Milan chief Leonardo says the future of Rino Gattuso will be decided at the end of the season.

Milan kept their top four chances alive with a 2-1 win over Bologna on Monday.

Leonardo said, "We have always been clear with him, it's normal to have some difficult moments. It's all going according to plan, we couldn't expect it to be all wine and roses.

“The club had many changes and it's true that we are not in a simple economic situation with parameters that have to be met in not much time.

“There is no dismantling of the squad, but obviously there won't be any big investments either. We are blocked for next summer.

“Clearly, Champions League qualification will be decisive on which direction we go in."
