Speaking to the microphones of DAZN, Paolo Maldini, technical director of AC Milan confirmed the arrival of Olivier Giroud as he said the following words:
"Yes, Olivier Giroud should arrive tomorrow. Olivier is a champion, he's done great things with France and Chelsea. He is a very reliable player and that's what we are looking for, as we have the youngest squad in Serie A, so we need players with experience. A young striker could also arrive, we want to do things well and lay the foundations of the team immediately and then look at other shots towards the end of the market."
"Franck Kessié will stay as he’s part of our future, we’re working to extend his contract"
On Gianluigi Donnarumma's exit:
"It is an important loss for us even if we have acquired a great goalkeeper. He is a boy who is born in our academy and to see what he has done in Milan, the fact that history is interrupted hurts a little. We can think about the past but the future is more fascinating."
