Milan Coach Vincenzo Monella sees a tight European race – “we’re all very close together”.

Just four point separate seventh-place Atalanta from Napoli in third, while the Rossoneri can draw level with Lazio in fourth if they beat the Partenopei tomorrow.

“We’re all very close together,” Montella acknowledged in his pre-match Press conference.

“So you can think of aspiring to something more than the Europa League, but also you could fail to qualify for the Europa League.

Milan Coach Vincenzo Monella sees a tight European race – “we’re all very close together”.

Just four point separate seventh-place Atalanta from Napoli in third, while the Rossoneri can draw level with Lazio in fourth if they beat the Partenopei tomorrow.

“We’re all very close together,” Montella acknowledged in his pre-match Press conference.

“So you can think of aspiring to something more than the Europa League, but also you could fail to qualify for the Europa League.

“There are so many teams in the race that bar has also been raised in terms of qualifying for the Europa League.

“This is a very high-stakes game, it’s a source of pride for us to be playing it, but also a responsibility. We can’t be content.

“We’re facing a very strong team, one which has been built to qualify for the Champions League.

“We’ll face them in top form, meaning we’ll need to put in a performance of the highest quality, and we’re happy to be playing a game like this.”

Gerard Deulofeu appears to be close to joining the Diavolo, where does Montella imagine he’ll fit into his side?

“I can’t imagine, I only speak about Milan players.”
