Gattuso won't pair Piatek with Cutrone despite Milan's struggle for Serie A goals

Gennaro Gattuso has ruled out playing new signing Krzysztof Piatek alongside Patrick Cutrone despite AC Milan's goalscoring problems continuing against Napoli.

The Rossoneri failed to score for the fifth time in their last seven league matches on Saturday as Carlo Ancelotti's side claimed a 0-0 draw at San Siro.

New signing Piatek, who arrived from Genoa this week for a reported €35million, came off the bench for Cutrone after 71 minutes but was denied by a good David Ospina save with his only clear chance.

Despite watching his side draw a blank for the third time in four league games at home, Gattuso is not yet prepared to sacrifice a midfield player for an extra forward.
