Joe Jordan wishes Gennaro Gattuso quick recovery

Tottenham Hotspur assistant Joe Jordan has wished A.C. Milan midfielder Gennaro Gattuso a speedy recovery from an eye injury.

The pair clashed on the touchline in last season's Champions League match between the two sides.

Gattuso has been diagnosed with sixth nerve palsy, a disorder which affects the movement of the eye.

Despite their history, Jordan has wished the Italian a return to full health.

"Forza Gattuso, come back to the pitch soon," he told Radio Mana Mana Sport 24.

"I know what has happened and I am sorry. What happened between us is in the past, it does not matter.

"Gattuso is a great champion and I hope he gets back on the pitch soon. We are all waiting for him. I am sure he will not give up."

Jordan played for Milan for two years when he joined from Manchester United in 1981.
