The striker has declared he is now happy to stay with the Rossoneri after last week insisting he wanted to leave.

For his part, Inzaghi says: "If I was him, I would remain with Milan, it's something special. Gilardino has the fortune to play with Milan for the next ten years.

"My role as a part-timer? I am happy if we take great players, those that come and they help us to win are accepted.

"For me, the years are gaining on me, so I must be careful about the number of games I play."
