“I’m very happy to be here and can’t wait to meet all my team mates, get out on the training pitch and hopefully get a lot of victories in the future. I've only heard great things about the club. I’ve had good talks with the coach so I feel very happy to be here now. Those conversations convinced me that this is the right place for me to come.”

"It was not an easy decision for me. Would I go to England? If so, which club? Or would I go to Germany? Or would I stay in Milan or keep fighting for my chance? But it was the great talks I've had and the conversations and I know I can have a good step in my career. This will help and I have only heard good things. It was very stressful and there were a lot of talks Antonio Conte. I arrived after midnight and woke up at 6.50am for a medical test. This is what you have to do if you join a new club. I am happy to be here now.

"The number one reason was playing time. I want to play more and show my abilities. The talks with the coach were convincing and I have a great chance to get a lot of playing time, I want to play a part in this team and help them reach their goals, and make the fans happy."
