AC Milan confirm injury to midfield stalwart
After spending seven seasons with Florentino, Montolivo has spent the last six at the San Siro. After arriving in 2012, He has served as a rock during AC Milan’s most difficult period in the 21st century. Taking over for outgoing captain Massimo Ambrosini, Montolivo has worn the armband since 2013.
Though not known for his scoring ability, he has had great success as a holding midfielder over the years. The former Atalanta youth product has worn the Italian crest 66 times, scoring twice. He continues to receive call ups from Gianpiero Ventura.
