AC Milan Manager Stefano Pioli Comments On The Market As Packed Ending Expected

AC Milan manager Stefano Pioli commented on the transfer market via MilanNews.it:

“Here at Milanello there is a positive air, there is compactness, sharing with the club, with the owners. Our transfer campaign started from afar, we wanted to give continuity to what was built last year.”

“The renewal of Zlatan, the reconfirmation of Kjaer, the acquisition of Rebic… these are all very important signs that have allowed us to continue in this direction.”

“With the new arrivals of Tonali and Diaz, the company has shown that it wants to grow and try to improve the team, for this I am very satisfied, for this I thank Elliott for the efforts made.”

“The club said it is willing to improve this squad if there is the possibility, the transfer market is still long, I’m only sorry to have many players not recovered from last season’s injuries.”

“When we are fully fit we will be a competitive team, we are young but we are growing well, then later if there is the possibility to improve in some position we will not be caught unprepared.”

“At centre-back? At the moment the injuries of Romagnoli and Musacchio limit us choices, I hope to recover Duarte for the first league game, then we’ll see what can happen.”

“I’m very happy with the players I have at my disposal, I have directors and an important technical area that needs to think about the transfer market, I have to focus on the next matches, on the first one that must be faced with the right approach. We have friendlies. faced with the right desire, the first official match will have to tell us many things.”

Antonio Vitiello on MilanNews.it is reporting that Milan's directors Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara could have a frantic final few days of transfer window as the club will wait to get through the preliminary rounds of the Europa League which end of the 1st of October before closing the final deals this summer.
