Daniele Massaro is currently a club representative of the Rossoneri. He gave an interview to Reuters to talk about the red and black's moment so far in the season:
"Milan have been extraordinary so far. Nobody was expecting it. The objectives for this season were definitely a bit different, but this team surprised us."
On the target of the club:
"The target is to get back into the Champions League. But we’re seeing something extraordinary from this team, and they’ve played the most as a team despite injuries, COVID, and a physical dip that is quite normal at this point of the season."
On the derby:
"I hope it will be a head-to-head battle until the end. Obviously we have more matches to play, having progressed in the Europa League. But we definitely have good squad depth, like the other teams who are up there fighting for top spot."
On the path to return to the top:
"Milan is absolutely aiming to return to the top level. We’re all working towards that target, from the technical staff to the commercial team, to the communications department. In every sector we want to get Milan back to what it was up until a few years ago, one of the most decorated clubs in the world, where this great team deserves to be."
On Zlatan Ibrahimovic's effect:
“It’s pointless to hide from that fact that when Ibra arrived he gave a great personality and responsibility to all these young players. We are one of the youngest teams in Europe. I think he’s an example."
"I had many team mates blessed with extraordinary technical gifts but also personality, and they were drivers and leaders who made you understand how you should train, behave and what it meant to wear the Milan shirt."
