Gasperini was asked what he regrets most about the comments that Ranieri made about him, to which he replied: “That I never had the feeling of what he said, it surprised me a lot.”
Gasperini was later asked how the situation came to this, when the relationship between him and Ranieri looked so promising less than a year ago.
“I don’t know, you’ve seen all the events. I don’t know how to comment on it, I’ve been out of it. I don’t participate in this mud machine that goes on every day. I continue to work on the team, and we’re trying to do well tomorrow.”
