Former AC Milan defender Philippe Senderos has spoken to grandhotelcalciomercato.com about his transfer from Arsenal to the Rossoneri. Here are his words:
“On August 25th, I received a call from my friend Flamini. He had been at Milan for a few weeks, he told me they were looking for a defender and asked me if I wanted to go. He was having dinner with the executives. It was him who made me come to Milan. I couldn't say no, I was thrilled. I immediately called Wenger, who set me free. Two days later I signed up. It doesn't matter if I've played a little. You know when I say I feel part of the group? I had just arrived, but the next day at Milanello they were all sad because Oddo and Brocchi were about to move to Bayern Munich and Lazio. They and my future companions were in tears, with whom they had lived unforgettable moments. He made me realize how privileged I was and I got confirmation week after week. I have never seen the work culture that was in Milanello anywhere else."
