AC Milan coach Gattuso cools Silva, Locatelli exit talk

AC Milan coach Gennaro Gattuso denies they're seeking to sell Andre Silva and Manuel Locatelli.

Locatelli is wanted by Genoa, while Silva is a target for Swansea City.

Gattuso said, "Andre Silva is in good shape, he has this incredible desire to work hard and I should be more courageous in throwing him into the mix. He is young and needs to improve on a few ideas, but it's no coincidence so many clubs want him. Milan moved well to sign this player and want to keep him.

“Locatelli came to talk to me and the club a week before the Winter break. He has to stay here. I played him from the start in the derby (against Inter in the Coppa Italia) because that was a fundamental match. His moment will come and it's right that he continues to grow with us."
