Milan's 3-0 victory against Hellas Verona sets up a Derby della Madonnina in the Coppa Italia, but Milan Director Massimiliano Mirabelli spoke about Donnarumma: "Gigio hasn't expressed his will to leave; there someone who wants to plan something, but we will protect the club."
"We will support and protect the kid, as he's our asset. We will know where the evil is coming from and we hope in the coming months that it will be resolved. Donnarumma has a contract until 2021 and I have nothing else to about it. We are closer than ever to Gigio. I was initially smiling about how things went, but things got real: he has to come and beg to leave. If he has to be sold, it will be on our terms. We will protect Milan from a man who is damaging our imagine and the club's image. I believe that one day that Donnarumma will realize wher lies good and evil. Moral violence? I don't think you can say something like: there is a man who is becoming a showman. Leaving in January? Absolutely not: Gigio has to come to us and we will see the condition that we can accept."
