A Great Player Does Not Necessarily Become A Great Coach

Gennaro Gattuso, who was an AC Milan legend as a player, continues his ordeal.

Marseille announced on its official website on the 20th, "Marceille is terminating his collaboration with Gattuso. I would like to express my gratitude to him for the unwavering dedication and professionalism that Gattuso and his coaches have shown every day."

Gattuso was a midfielder representing Italy when he was active. He joined AC Milan in July 1999 and spent 13 years with AC Milan until July 2012. Gattuso had 11 goals and 20 assists in 468 matches in AC Milan.

Gattuso left a great mark for the Italian national team as well. Making his debut for the Italian national team in February 2000, Gattuso played in 73 matches. He was a member of Italy's championship team at the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany.

Gattuso began his career as a leader after he announced his retirement from active duty in July 2013. He took the helm of his former club AC Milan in November 2017. With AC Milan, he finished the season sixth in the league in 2017/18, and fifth in the league in 2018/19. He finished seventh and fifth in the 2019/20 and 2020/21, respectively, with Napoli.

Gattuso, who was not bad at AC Milan and Napoli, has been on the decline since then. He was with Valencia last season but left the team in January 2023 without completing a season. In September last year, he was appointed as the head coach of Olympique Marseille, but he has to leave the team again. Marseille has been suffering from a severe slump, with only six recent league games without a win. 메이저사이트
