SERIE A - Josip Ilicic's dilemma, to stay or not to stay

Probably the drama that will lasts until the deadline to complete the operations. But fate is all in the hands of Josip Ilicic, who, by the words of Gasperini himself, asked to be sold at the end of last season.

A tear too complicated to fix, something broke at the most beautiful moment for the Goddess: from the arms outstretched towards his teammates during the impossible match against Real Madrid to the repeated benches in the last ten league games. Too much for the Slovenian, even if the fluctuating moment was certainly not functional to the Nerazzurri's game in the key moment of the season. The only night to remember remains that of San Siro against Milan, a team that continues to wink at the number 72. But the offers, at least for the moment, do not arrive in the office of Zingonia.

The last few days have cracked the relationship between coach and player, in a recent press conference Gasperini himself confirmed that Ilicic had asked for the sale: "At the end of the season he clearly expressed the desire to have new experiences and find new emotions.

But he did well the preparation, it's the first time I've seen him with a few extra pounds. It is an indication of excellent health, he hasn't skipped a minute of training and he has never cursed about anything, it has never happened since I have been here. In my opinion, he is preparing to find a team that will give him the opportunity to do something important again, he still has the means to do it. " In the last few hours, however, there have been rumors of a meeting between the two, an interview to better understand what the Professor's current intentions are.
