Ismael Bennacer was interviewed by Milan TV and talked about his moment after the injury, as well as the team's performance:
On his absence:
"When I saw the team playing I would have liked to be there to help everyone, but it's part of the job. You have to manage this type of injury well. My wife helped me a lot."
On the team having difficulties without him:
"Whether I am present or not, we are still one group. We are the same Milan team. When the team loses, then I lose too."
On receiving the best North African player of 2020 Award:
"When you earn one award, you'd be looking to win the next one. I must do everything that I can to improve further."
On the work being done in recent months:
"I worked hard to get back to the top, touching the ball is an emotion I haven't felt for a long time."
On his midfield partner Franck Kessié:
"He never feels tired. His energy level is incredible. We must use that to our advantage in the field."
On the new arrivals during the mercato:
"We are a family, when someone arrives we have to do everything to make him feel good."
On the next game against Crotone:
"The championship is very tough, every match is difficult. We are AC Milan and we must give everything to try to win it."
