I think everyone knows that I can play in different roles and that I give my all wherever I play. This season I've played a few times as a striker or in midfield, but wherever I play I'll try to help create or score goals. I'm happy to do so.
Gennaro Gattuso put everything into trying to secure World Cup qualification, but was unable to. He signed a one-year contract with the option for the following two years if they qualified for the tournament this summer, but since they did not he will depart.
Gabriele Borsa was initially not called up for the game but was asked to play at the last minute due to another injury within the camp. He started the game and scored a hat-trick, showcasing his talent and leaving a lasting impression.
SSC Napoli can confirm that Romelu Lukaku did not respond to today's call to return to training. The club reserves the right to consider taking the appropriate disciplinary action.
Here at the Olimpico, we won the Italian Cup, which allowed us to be here in the Europa League. That win against Milan is indelible, something destined to remain forever, and now we are here after a beautiful journey in the groups and playoffs.
Daniel Maldini was still able to experience the youth sector journey at Milan like his dad. He made his senior debut in a red and black shirt and even scored his first professional goal in a season that culminated with a Scudetto win. However, unlike Paolo, he departed for pastures new.
That AC Milan thought big because its president, Silvio Berlusconi, thought big. And he passed this on to the club, the coaches, and the players. When I think back to when we chose Sacchi, people said we were crazy. Arrigo made his teams play well, but he was a coach who, in the year before coming to AC Milan, hadn't won promotion from Serie B with Parma.
In the culture of Italy, everyone is focused on the result, even the youth coaches want to win. So if they want to win, they also want to field players who are ready, but then the players with potential won't get any playing time. We have taken this out of Milan, changing the philosophy completely. First of all, we want to give our youngsters game time because when you are young, game time is so important.
In defence, Gila has been talked about for some time. As a protégé of Tare, who discovered him and brought him to Italy, he's an exemplary professional who waited his turn, improved, and then became one of the league's top centre-backs. His contract expires in 2027, but he's ready to leave in the summer. Someone like him would be perfect for AC Milan: quick, explosive, and excellent at recovering the ball.
