AC Milan coach Gattuso: An honour to work with Bonucci

AC Milan coach Rino Gattuso doesn't believe Leonardo Bonucci will be jeered on Sunday.

Milan face Juventus and their former defender at the San Siro.

Gattuso said, "Leo is a player who gave us a great deal. If there are improvements in the defence, especially Alessio Romagnoli, it is also down to him. When I was going over the top, he was always by my side.

“I can only speak highly of Leo, then in life there are many situations and it's difficult to judge. I tried to convince him to stay, but he has kids, his private life, and this is all to be respected.

“It was an honour to be his Coach and I hope one day that is recognised."
