Allegri agreed to return to Milan after over 12 years away last week after the removal of Sergio Conceicao
Branchini said on Radio RAI: “We analysed the concrete and real proposal that we received. The ‘rumours’ have taken on excessive importance in our world. There is a rush to anticipate events that can often lead to error.
Asked if Roma had been in contact, he continued: “No, there wasn’t an offer. There was an attempt at contact many months ago, but we considered it very unlikely to be credible. There have been no developments and there hasn’t even been contact.
On tension between Allegri and Milan director Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Branchini added: “I’m not worried. I don’t see Ibrahimovic’s name in the Milan organisational chart with a specific role.
I’m not that worried, I hope that the club has made this choice knowing that, in addition to changing a few players, some approaches towards the players and the environment need to change.
