Paolo Maldini, AC Milan club technical area director, spoke to Amazon Prime Video Sport about the fixture against Porto:
"The Champions is the home of Milan, it's our story. The story obviously changes, then sometimes it comes back and we hope it is our case."
"First of all, we would need a better ranking, we are in the most difficult group. We played a decent game in Liverpool, very well against Atletico and badly against Porto. We do not deserve zero points, but we are a young team and this helps us to grow. We have to keep the pace high for 90 minutes as in Italy also in the Champions League against teams that run and have quality", said Maldini
On the squad:
We know very well that champions League make the difference, but the idea of team spirit and motivation exists between the coach, players and management. This is our strength."
Maldini on the contract renewal of Kessié:
"We have been talking about it for a long time, there will be an opportunity to meet his agent for the umpteenth time and we will decide in all serenity. But now, we have two important matches. We are in the Champions League also thanks to donnarumma and Calhanoglu who have shown great professionalism until the end."
