BENNACER: "AC MILAN IS PERFECT FOR ME"
Press Conference
Today, Leão, Bennacer and Duarte were officially presented as AC Milan players. Ahead of training at Milanello, the three summer signings spoke at a press conference that was shown live on the new App as they discussed how they felt and their objectives for the upcoming season. Here is what Ismaël Bennacer had to say:
AC MILAN THE PERFECT CHOICE
“I’m improving and Milan is the perfect team for me to learn more and work at my best. Milan have had great players and I need to do my best to get as close to them as I can. I feel very good, I’m happy. With the team and the facilities that we have such as Milanello, we can do our best.”
FROM THE CUP OF NATIONS TO MILAN
“I was at the African Cup of Nations when Milan called and I didn’t think about it too much. I knew that they were really interested and this is the most important thing. After winning the Cup of Nations I feel the same as before, I just have more experience and belief in myself. It’s given me more confidence. It’s different here and there are lots of great players. I’m thinking of doing my best like in the Cup of Nations."
ON GIAMPAOLO
“He asked me to come and it means a lot to me. I love him, I’ll give my all for him. He knows my qualities and I know that I can learn and improve, I’ll give all that I can. Giampaolo asked me to come because he likes how I play, he knows my qualities and I’m suited to his system.”
HIS ROLE
“My favourite role is as a deep-lying playmaker in front of the defence but I'll play wherever the Coach wants. It’s not a problem, I’m at the team's service.”
A reminder that applications for season tickets for the 2019/20 season are still open. You can also buy tickets to AC Milan v Brescia, our first home game in the new Serie A season.
