I started playing football in red and black colors, I grew up and I always hoped to be able to wear the AC Milan shirt and my city transforming my greatest passion in my work.
I wore the Rossoneri shirt with pride trying to honor it at every game, because that's what AC Milan is.
Two intense years, a beautiful path that from day one I hoped would last as long as possible but in life as in football not always everything goes as we would like.
But there comes a time when you stop and realize it's time to start a new path.
I thank and bring with me all the Rossoneri fans, every word of affection and esteem, every choir of yours, the celebrations and the roar at the Brianteo Stadium that I will never forget.
I thank my companions who have listened to me, understood and supported me in difficult times. I thank the people who shared this experience with me, always spurring and supporting me. We rejoiced and cried. We made Milan's history with the first Champions League qualification and the first game on the San Siro pitch. Their legs were shaking, their hearts were shaking: an emotion impossible to describe but which I wish to anyone!
A chapter closes in which I tried to give all myself, when my legs did not arrive I tried to put my heart into it. I worked to improve myself and found strengths I didn't even know I had.
Now is the time to move forward, I will take your teachings with me, without forgetting anything, using every experience lived to be stronger in the future.
Bye Milan, you will always be my city.
Bye Milan, you will always remain a beautiful part of my life.
Vitale leaves AC Milan after 35 appearances and 1 goal, scored against Juventus. According to Luca Maninetti, from Milannews24.com, she is set to join Fiorentina.
