Milan are unable to bring in a new midfielder because Riccardo Montolivo is refusing to leave, it’s reported.
The 33-year-old has been told in no uncertain terms that he is not part of the Coach Gennaro Gattuso’s plans.
He even had the captain’s armband taken from him by new arrival Leonardo Bonucci last season and this summer has been urged to move elsewhere, but he rejected every single offer.

According to Sportitalia, Milan are desperate to be rid of him, but the former Fiorentina star is under contract until June 2019 and doesn’t want to leave the city, as his wife is currently pregnant.
Montolivo made 24 competitive appearances in a Rossoneri jersey last season, contributing a goal and two assists.
