Amorim to skip pre-match press conferences for Milan games against Atalanta and Udinese

Amorim to skip pre-match press conferences for Milan games against Atalanta and Udinese Ruben Amorim will not hold his usual pre-match press conference ahead of Milan’s Serie A clash with Atalanta at San Siro on Sunday. He will skip next Saturday’s briefing before the trip to Udinese too. According to MilanNews24 , there is nothing unusual behind the decision. The arrangement was planned well in advance with the club and is purely down to Milan’s packed schedule across Serie A and the Europa League.

The same will happen next week, when he speaks in Bournemouth following the third round of the league phase against the Cherries on 22 October. With those European commitments falling so close to the domestic fixtures, the Portuguese coach has chosen to use the extra time on the training pitch at Milanello rather than in front of the cameras.
