Sérgio Conceicao, the new AC Milan head coach, spoke to the media in a press conference (read all of his statements HERE). He was asked the following question:
Do you confirm the idea that, in your view, all players are equal? Have you already spoken to Theo Hernandez and Rafael Leao?
"For me, they’re equal in how I manage the locker room. I don’t differentiate whether they’re 17 or 37; it depends on what they do in training. If they train at their maximum—not just their current level, but pushing to another limit—then there’s truly no difference. In the locker room, they know the approach is the same for everyone."
Conceicao added:
"After that, there are personal conversations. I like to understand the whole story of the players I work with. I look into whether they have a father, a mother, and the backstory behind their behaviors within the team."
