The 33-year-old combative battler was at the centre of controversy on Tuesday night following the Rossoneri's 1-0 defeat to Spurs at the San Siro in the UEFA Champions League.
A frustrating night for the former Italy international turned sour at the final whistle when he confronted Jordan, head-butting the Tottenham coach having earlier grabbed him by the throat.
Uefa's control and disciplinary body will discuss the matter on Monday and Gattuso could be set for a lengthy European ban following his reaction.
He is already suspended for the return leg at White Hart Lane on 9th March after picking up a booking during the game, and the ex-Rangers man proceeded to smack the ground in anger following the yellow card.
Gattuso confronted former Scotland and Milan midfielder Jordan on the touchline during the encounter before the ugly scenes after the final whistle.
Uefa's disciplinary code calls for a ban of at least one European match for 'unsporting conduct', but at least three for 'assaulting players or others present at the match.' www.intopremierleague.blogspot.com; http://www.skysports.com/
