Two clubs in opposite halves of the Serie A table will do battle today in a league match between AC Milan and Sassuolo. The first-division clash scheduled for 2:45 p.m. ET will be held at the San Siro in Milan and can be live streamed here free.
With rampant speculation surrounding the future of AC Milan manager Clarence Seedorf, the Dutchman remains an open book. For Seedorf, transparency defines him (Football Italia). "I generally don't use a mask to hide my feelings. I am transparent," said the Seedorf.
"I do have sentiments and when I read or hear certain things, they do leave me bitter; however, I am reassured by my rapport with the squad, because if it had been a divided group, then we would not have achieved these good results on the field," he added.
"Against Juventus I saw the right direction for my philosophy and ideas. We had character, pace, solidity, but then lacked the final result."
"I saw good things in several games, but I am growing in my work the same way my players are and we're getting to know each other too."
Will AC Milan earn another result and make a stronger case for Seedorf's future in Milan? Tell us @SportsWN
