AC Milan director Umberto Gandini says that the players made the right decision in walking off the pitch during their friendly match with Pro Patia.

AC Milan director Umberto Gandini has said that he is "very proud" of the players for walking off the pitch because of racist chanting during a friendly match against Pro Patia this afternoon.

The move was instigated by Ghanaian star Kevin-Prince Boateng, who picked up the ball and kicked it towards fans heard chanting racial slurs directed at Milan's black players.

Boateng then led a mass walk-off as Pro Patia players attempted to reconcile the situation.

"It is so sad but we had to give a strong signal," Gandini told BBC Sport. "Very proud of all Milan players for their decision."

Coach Massimiliano Allegri also said that he was "saddened" by the situation.
