AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri has insisted his side's latest setback has not signalled the bell for his departure amid reports the club is lining up former player Frank Rijkaard to take over.
Allegri employed a new 4-3-3 formation for its Champions League clash away to Malaga on Wednesday where it succumbed to Joaquin Sanchez's second-half winner.
Milan's sixth defeat from 11 games in all competitions has underlined the ongoing task facing Allegri, who lost the spine of an experienced side in a busy summer transfer period.
And a report by the 7gold television network yesterday claimed the club was set to lure former Rossonero Rijkaard from his post as coach of the Saudi Arabian national team.
Allegri, who led Milan to the league title in 2011 and a runner-up place behind Juventus last year, said he is not throwing in the towel.
"I'm not quitting, absolutely not," said Allegri. "It's not my style to quit, and I have a lot of the faith in this squad. I think we can get back into the Serie A and the Champions League for us isn't over yet.
"It's a fairly balanced group."
Milan hosts Genoa on Saturday and will be looking for its first win since a 2-0 victory over Cagliari a month ago.
