Report: Everton manager Ancelotti annoyed with Gattuso’s comments

13 gen 2020

The relationship between Carlo Ancelotti and Gennaro Gattuso seemingly isn't at its best. In the past, the two have been referred to as the teacher and the student, but a few statements from the latter have put a strain on their friendship.

Perhaps, maybe more so annoyance than actual anger. As Corriere Dello Sport reports (via Calciomercato.com), the former AC Milan manager has annoyed the current Everton manager, who until December 11th was on the Napoli bench instead of Gattuso.

The newspaper claims that Ancelotti didn't appreciate some of the comments about his management, which came out of Gattuso's mouth in recent days. For example, he stated that Ancelotti 'hit the bottom' and 'now we run it in a different way'.

Of course, it's clear that Napoli have a concept now that's quite different from the one at the start of the season. Nevertheless, it was surprising to hear Gattuso's statements.
