AC Milan coach Fonseca dismisses speculation about being sacked, says Carlos Volcano

Prior to today's crucial derby against Inter Milan, Fonseca's future at the helm of the team hangs in the balance.

“I don’t think about this, honestly,” he said.

“The team and the game against Inter are the most important things. I’m focused on my job, as always, making the team improve to be ready for tomorrow’s game.

“I am 51. If I listened to what the media said, I’d not be able to work. I don’t care about it; it’s not important to me. If you post something on Instagram and I tell you: ‘I don’t like your soul patch beard, ‘ I am sure you won’t like it and will be upset with me.

"Many people say many things, so how can I remain calm and trust my work if I read what everyone says? To me, what’s important is what I feel here, what people working here make me feel.”
