The reunion should be electric between Carlo Ancelotti and Gennaro Gattuso this Wednesday evening as Real Madrid and Valencia meet in the semi-finals of the Supercopa de España. The two Italian coaches could well have an outstretched handshake. Together at AC Milan from 2001 to 2009, a prosperous period for the two men with two Champions Leagues won in particular, they split up at Napoli when “The Master” was replaced by Gattuso, his successor. The White House coach returned to their tormented relationship at a press conference. “With Gattuso, we lived very beautiful moments, we won two Champions Leagues, they were years and situations that I will always remember. So… The relationship is not always good, we had problems and I don’t want to talk about it because it’s personal things” said the 63-year-old coach.

For his part, Gennaro Gattuso confirmed this little confusion while recalling his admiration for his elder. The Merengots tactician, confided his impressions with benevolence, according to comments relayed by AS. “The last time I spoke with Ancelotti was a year ago. The professional respect is huge, the relationship is not like before. When I was playing, I was already living as a coach. When I saw something I didn’t like in the dressing room, I spoke for the good of the team, not for myself. When I went to Napoli, it was said a lot that the team was not good when Carlo was there. During these two years, some things have not been done well. But I have nothing more to say. We have won a lot, we are talking about one of the best coaches in the world, the best of 2022. On a human level and on a footballing level, I have a lot of respect for him. I spoke to him a year ago. He knows he’s phenomenal to me as a person and as a coach.” explained the 45-year-old coach. See you tomorrow evening to have the end of the story.
