“The team is concentrated, we are well aware of how important this match is. We don’t like our current position in the table, but are convinced we can put in a strong performance today and get a positive result,” the director told Sky Sport Italia.
The biggest problem for Milan is upfront, where they have scored only 11 goals in 13 Serie A games.
Because of this, they have been in negotiations for the return of Ibrahimovic as a free agent following his LA Galaxy experience.
“Ibrahimovic is a great champion who has written important pages in the Milan history books. When his name is accosted to Milan, it becomes an irresistible suggestion, but it remains only an idea. When the transfer window opens, then we’ll see with the coach what needs to be done.
“These lads are working hard and need to improve their concentration levels towards the end of games, although that is perhaps down to their youth and inexperience. We all have to mature quickly so this can get back to being the Milan we all remember.”
Massara was also asked about Gianluigi Donnarumma, as his contract talks hit problems and the goalkeeper could leave in the summer.
“He is a very important player and has always put in top level performances. He has a year and a half left on his contract, so we are not worried.”
