AC Milan release Donnarumma statement over contract controversy

AC Milan have released a statement insisting there's no concern between the club and Gigio Donnarumma.

Donnarumma's agent Mino Raiola is launching legal action against the club to have his contract terminated.

But the club said: “Gigio is an asset for the club, both sportingly [just go back to his excellent saves against Torino and Bologna] and financially.

“All this is underlined by a contract until 2021, and strengthened by an always open and positive dialogue between the player and his Coach [Gennaro Gattuso] and the player and the Rossoneri sporting director, [Massimiliano] Mirabelli.

“Having established this, as Gattuso already did yesterday, Milan are now concentrated solely on the pitch, it's there that the Rossoneri must work to get back on track.

“This isn't the time for the transfer market, but solely and exclusively the pitch."
