Hate on social media is very dangerous' - Gattuso hits back at online campaign against him becoming Tottenham manager

The former AC Milan midfielder feels he was unfairly targeted and warned against the perils of social media after his move to north London collapsed

Gennaro Gattuso insists he is neither racist nor sexist as he hit out at an online campaign against him during talks to become Tottenham manager.

Spurs turned their attention to Gattuso last month following the breakdown of Paulo Fonseca's move to the north London club.

However, that move also broke down just 24 hours later after supporters launched a protest against the Italian, highlighting controversial comments he had previously made about same-sex marriage and women in football.
