He was met by the media at the airport. The Italian defender, who is 24 years of age, said a few words.
"Ibrahimovic as a member of management? I haven't spoken to him, but he's always the same, he's an important figure. It will be fascinating to see him in a different role."
Are you happy to be back?
"Yes, I am very happy."
Gabbia, what about your time in Spain?
"My dream has always been to play for Milan, but of course, I also felt very good in Spain at Villarreal. This situation arose regarding injuries, and I was very happy that the club thought of me to help the team, and that's what I'll try to do."
Have you spoken with the coach?
"Yes, he asked me how I was doing. Mainly, he wanted to know about my physical condition and if I was trained. I've always had a good relationship with the coach, so it was nice to hear from him again."
Gabbia sent a message to the fans:
"The goal is to try to make the fans as happy as possible, to make them happy and make us happy by trying to achieve great objectives. Forza Milan."
