Milan, Calabria furious after latest rumors: fiery statement
Milan coach Paulo Fonseca's furious statements after the match against Red Star have sparked many rumors about the players in the Rossoneri coach's crosshairs: among them would be Davide Calabria, who was replaced amid booing during the Champions League match.
The Milan captain, who on the occasion had not shaken hands with Fonseca, reacted angrily to the rumors in a statement released on Instagram: "Hello everyone. I feel compelled to set the record straight. Over the past few months I have let a lot of things slide, avoiding responding to situations 'unpleasant' or invented in order not to waste time and energy. Perhaps I should have done so even earlier. Today I think the time has come to say a few words".
"Soì as in the past, a lot of misinformation has been circulating in recent days about me and our team. Fake news that would not deserve weight, but which I now believe requires a response to protect my image and that of our group. These inferences about field dynamics, various comparisons and my private life, do not correspond to the truth; they only create confusion and division. I ask for respect for me, for our work and for the club we represent".
"Constructive criticism is part of our job, but falsehoods" are not. I urge anyone to check before spreading news that may harm people or our environment. Our focus remains on the field, where every day we work with the utmost professionalism to improve ourselves. I will not allow anyone to undermine my love and commitment to my favorite team. Thank you to those who always support us. Forza Milan!".
