Bonera denies Gourcuff row
Wednesday 15 November, 2006
Milan defender Daniele Bonera has denied clashing with teammate Yoann Gourcuff in training. “This story was invented,” he declared.
The Corriere dello Sport reported on Tuesday that the pair had a confrontation during training and that the alleged homesick Gourcuff was even considering a return to Rennes.
“This is something which was made up by someone who wants to create problems to a group which already has some to solve,” said Bonera to Milan Channel.
“This is a delicate moment and hearing that I had a row with Yoann makes no sense.
“He and I have a really good relationship, we live near each other and once in a while we travel to Milanello together in the same car,” added the former Parma man.
“There really are no problems between us and when we heard about this thing we even laughed about it.
“The newspaper said that the fight was caused by a tackle during training, but on Monday there was no such episode.
“And even if there had been a tackle, that would be no reason to fight, it’s part of the game,” concluded Bonera.
Gourcuff was also eager to deny the row and confirmed that he is happy at Milan since his summer switch.
“I read the newspapers and what was written about me and Bonera. There are no problems, there was no quarrel and I get on with everyone,” said the midfielder to Milan Channel.
“I am very pleased to be here so I was surprised to read this. This would not happen in France, you wouldn’t see this in the papers, I suppose I have to get used to the Italian Press.
“I hope to stay here for a long time and become a great Milan player. The atmosphere is good even if our results haven’t been excellent.
“Of course it would have been better to come back to a team that was top of the table after my injury.
“The positive thing is that the Champions League has been going well, we haven’t lost and are top of our group after a series of good results,” concluded the 20-year-old.

Am I the only one who thinks they really fought into each other and were forced by Carlo and Silvio to deny it in the press?
