AC Milan is hoping that their newly appointed coach, Gennaro Gattuso will restore the glory of the fallen Italian giant.
Former playnager of the club on Monday after sacking Vincenzo Montella following a disappointing start to the season.
The seven-time European champions released Montella after a goalless draw against Torino on Sunday left them seventh in Serie A, 18 points behind leaders Napoli.
In 39-year-old Gattuso, the Chinese-owned club have turned to a member of one of their most successful sides, but he has little coaching pedigree.
Milan thanked Montella for his efforts and said in a statement: "Management of the first team is entrusted to Gennaro Gattuso."
Gattuso made a total of 468 appearances for AC Milan between 1999 and 2012, winning a reputation as a rugged defensive midfielder and earning the nickname "Rino", on account of his verbal raging and rampaging playing style.
