The Rossoneri had a nightmare start to the season after losing five of their opening eight games, yet they are now in the Champions League zone.

However, they are only a point clear of Fiorentina with four ties remaining and there is still uncertainty over the future of the tactician.

“In this season of profound change, Allegri has overcome many difficulties and has worked well with the youngsters, who are our future,” the daughter of President Silvio Berlusconi told Milan Channel.

“It is not up to me to make evaluations of the Coach, but failing to finish third this season would leave a bitter taste in the mouth.

“We are all fighting for a fundamental objective and that is the Champions League. We are all united!”

Milan face Torino this weekend, then games versus Pescara, Roma and Siena.
