In the midfield circle for the final farewell, Simon Kjaer expressed himself in his last match in the AC Milan team:
"I want to thank everyone, it's not easy for me to be here, speaking in Italian... I have to thank the club, the coach, the staff, you fans. You have brought me joys that I didn't know were possible in the world of football."
Kjaer added:
"My feeling here is the same as I have with the national team, and I've been with the national team for 15 years. In 4 years here, you have become a family. This group here has made me enjoy every day. Every day I go from Milan to Milanello, with the mountains behind, is one of the greatest joys of my life, shared with you all. Thank you all."
