AC Milan Primavera coach Cristian Brocchi is flattered by rumours of him succeeding Pippo Inzaghi.

Brocchi has been mentioned as a replacement for Inzaghi should the Milan coach be sacked before the end of the season.

"It 's normal, I'm the coach of the Primavera and so there is that talk about me at times. I though hold a certain position and I'm a friend Pippo, it is a difficult situation because sometimes you find yourself at the centre of rumours.

"I admit that in some cases it can also be a pleasure because it means that I'm doing something good in the academy."
