Adriano Galliani: 'Massimiliano Allegri will remain AC Milan coach'

AC Milan CEO Adriano Galliani has insisted that coach Massimiliano Allegri will not be sacked despite the club's poor run of results.

The Rossoneri suffered a 3-2 defeat to Lazio in Rome in Serie A on Saturday and are now just two points above the relegation zone.

"The coach stays in his job and has to try and make sure that the team puts points on the table and find the right solutions to get us out of this situation," he told Milan Channel.

"There's no desire whatsoever to change the coach. It's a tough moment and we need the strength to stay calm and get over this moment that we're in.

"We're getting no luck whatsoever at the moment but things will change. We keep going."

Allegri admitted after the defeat to Lazio that Milan face the "risk" of being entangled in a relegation dogfight if results do not improve.
