Italian champions Milan are confident that Gennaro Gattuso will still be at the club for their 2011-12 campaign.

The veteran midfielder has been linked with a lucrative move to Russian side Anzhi Makhachkala, but Adriano Galliani doesn't predict a summer exit.

"Gattuso has a contract with us and he has not asked for a transfer," the Rossoneri Vice-President noted on Monday.

Galliani's words come after the player's agent also seemed to rule out a Stadio Meazza exit for his client.

"I think he'll stay at Milan," Andrea D'Amico noted last week. "However, if he was to leave, he'd never go to an Italian side after the Rossoneri.

"Is he wanted by other clubs? The only serious offer that we have received is from Russian side Anzhi Makhachkala."

The 2006 World Cup winner, now 33-years-old, joined Milan in 1999 from Salernitana.
