The relationship between Allegri and Cesc Fabregas has not really been there, ever. Despite the pair seemingly sharing niceties before the first game, the Spaniard was very salty after losing to Milan in the reverse fixture.
His comments kept coming about the Rossoneri’s style of play, too, and ahead of this game, Como fans displayed a banner stating they would rather have Fabregas once than Allegri 100 times. Indeed, it has become somewhat of a rivalry.
Expletives exchanged between Allegri and Fabregas
In the most recent fixture, things got even more feisty when Fabregas deliberately inserted himself into the game by preventing Alexis Saelemaekers from attacking the ball. As a result, the Italian reacted and was sent off for that, a baffling decision, given the footage…
After the game, a ‘heated exchange’ occurred, as MilanNews writes, before they entered the press conference rooms. Harsh words were shared, and expletives were thrown, whilst the doors to the press were still wide open.
TMV, via Calciomercato.com, has also relayed what was said by the coach: “You’re a child, you’re an a**hole, you’re a child who just started as a coach!”
Maybe they won’t be sending each other Christmas cards this year.
