Milan midfielder Riccardo Montolivo is reportedly considering a move to Silvio Berlusconi’s new club Monza in Serie C.
He was the captain of the Rossoneri not so long ago, but the 33-year-old has been frozen out by Coach Gennaro Gattuso.
The 33-year-old was on the market this summer, but refused to leave, as his wife is expecting a baby.
As a result, Montolivo was dumped to the outskirts of the squad and in a midweek friendly during international duty was even made to play with the Primavera youth team rather than the remaining senior players.
According to Calciomercato.com, a solution could be found in a reunion with former Milan directors Adriano Galliani and Silvio Berlusconi.
They took over Monza this month and are considering Montolivo as a reinforcement for their midfield.
However, the former Italy international would prefer not to drop down into Serie C, so would hold off until Monza’s promotion into Serie B next season.
His contract only runs to June 2019, so he'd be a free agent by then.

i like Gattuso but he's wrong about this one . Montolivo has been good to Milan all the time when everyone left us even when our squad was full with useless players back then 2014/15 he was our captain and give us everything he had . I'm not talking about give him role in the new milan or more play time but don't treat him like that he deserve more than that [Cry].
As a fellow Milan fan I agreed with you but is hard to see him with any minutes in our squad now [Cry]. Is best if he goes to Monza with Berlusconi.

hes crap...always has been and always will be
i did said when our squad was full with useless players not now also he could leave us back then for better team when we finish 9 or 10 on the table of the league but he chose not to . even last year when Milan buy Bonucci and take the captain form him and he didn't play much and most the matches was in bench he chose to cheer for us and cry with us . so have some respect for someone who care about our jersey
