AC Milan's experienced centre-back, Simon Kjaer, who is 32 years old, recently signed a contract extension that should see him remain with the club until 2024.
The player is very happy with the new deal as he expressed his thoughts to SportMediaset:
"Extending my contract here is a dream for me, it is the team and the club that I have dreamed of playing for all my career."
"Renewing the contract for another two years means that Milan are happy with my work and I am proud of that. This is a good sign for me. It is a great compliment for the work I have done here so far."
The experienced Dane is one of the important players who helped Milan regain a good form on the pitch. He offers plenty of experience to the younger teammates:
"I am now 32 years old and have more experience. I have a good relationship with Pioli, he knows that what I do is 100% for the good of the team", he said.
Kjaer continued:
"I am a member of the team, if those close to me do not perform well then I do not look good either. The most important thing is always the collective, for a defender it must always be like this. Then of course I also improved. I've always had the mentality to believe that I can improve every day. The day I no longer believe this, then I will stop playing football."
