Vincenzo Montella sacked after just 17 months as AC Milan coach

Villarreal loanee Carlos Bacca appears to approve of AC Milan’s decision to sack Vincenzo Montella.

The Colombia international fell out with the coach last season and was loaned out to Villarreal for the 2017-18 campaign.

He remains under contract at San Siro and could yet feature again for the Rossoneri, with Montella now having been dismissed and replaced by Primavera coach Gennaro Gattuso on Monday.

Soon after Montella's departure was announced by the club, Bacca posted a message on his Twitter handle, saying: "God took his time but never forgot".

In an interview in his native Colombia last month, Bacca bemoaned the fact he had to play in "the worst Milan [side] in history".

Sunday's 0-0 home draw with Torino proved to be Montella's final game at the helm, with the club languishing at seventh in Serie A despite some big off-season spending.
