The club officially denied rumors that the attacker Antonio Cassano suffered a cerebral hemorrhage.

Although it is added that the Italian is recovering rapidly, no further comments about his health problems and condition are provided.

Cassano was unexpectedly hospitalized over the weekend, despite playing for several minutes in Saturday's away match against "Roma." Upon returning home, the footballer felt unwell, had difficulties coordinating movements, and had trouble speaking.

With the lack of precise information in the media, rumors started spreading about a threat to the life of the "Milan" player, but these speculations were denied.

On Monday, Cassano's representative met with the client and said: "I talked to the doctors, but they didn't tell me anything. Antonio seemed to be feeling very well."
