In Stefano Pioli's press conference yesterday afternoon, the words of the Rossoneri coach about his role as a 'lightning rod', as positively labeled by Alessandro Florenzi after the draw with Genoa, sparked quite a bit of discussion.
Today, Corriere dello Sport's headline is exactly about the Rossoneri coach, stating: "Pioli the only lightning rod for Milan."
In the body of the article, the coach's thoughts on this possibility are reported:
"I believe that in the figure of the coach, in my role, there is also the aspect of being a lightning rod, protecting the team, protecting the club because all the responsibilities are there and this has never been a problem for me."
In the subheading of the piece, however, there is talk of what the next two weeks will be like for the Rossoneri coach:
"For the coach, the last three games will be on the bench. Then a meeting with the club is expected to say goodbye."
On this matter, as has often happened in recent weeks, Pioli dodged the question: "I am focused on these last games, then at the end of the season, I will meet with the club and our future will be decided."
