Fikayo Tomori has sat down with the journalists at DAZN and discussed his career so far with AC Milan. The centre-back is enjoying his time at AC Milan:
"Now I feel great at Milan, I love Milan. Obviously Chelsea have been a very important part of my life for 15 years and I managed to realise my dreams by playing in all competitions, but now I am very happy at Milan and I am happy with what we are doing; now we also have the Champions League at last and maybe we can win it like Chelsea did", said Tomori "I feel very good here. It is different from England: the rhythms are more relaxed, everyone is always in a hurry there, everything is quieter here. I like the Italian lifestyle: after training you drink a coffee, you take a quiet walk ... I remember the first time I saw the Duomo: it was... Wow! It was something special, so impressive, so Italian."
On his friendship with Tammy Abraham:
"I'm very happy for him. We talk almost every day. We started playing for Chelsea when I was 7 and then we got to the First Team: that's where you want to go when you grow up , but you don't know if it will ever happen. I remember when I scored the first goal and he scored a hat-trick: it was the best day of our life."
On moving to Canada:
"When my mother was 22-23, my father moved to England and my mom took a trip to Canada to see a friend; my father visited her, they were already together at that point and I was born. I moved to England as a child, even though I returned to Canada every year; I have many family friends there: when I think of Canada, only good things come to mind."
On his nationality:
"I feel very Nigerian. When I was little my parents spoke to me in Youruba, the ethnic group I belonged to. My favourite food is Jollof rice, a kind of rice stew; I don't know how to describe it, but it is a very tasty dish, very African, very strong."
On his name:
"My name? (Oluwafikayomi Oluwadamilola Tomori) It is of Nigerian derivation. My first name means 'God has filled me with joy'. It is a phrase. In Nigeria, parents often choose a phrase that gives the child a name."
