In a press conference today, Koni De Winter, the new AC Milan signing who arrived from Genoa to reinforce Massimiliano Allegri's defence, said the following when asked about the responsibility of wearing the Rossoneri shirt for this new Serie A season:
"The Milan shirt? Very heavy. It’s a very important shirt, but it’s great to wear it. As for goals, I always put a lot of pressure on myself and set many objectives, but I try to focus on performing well match by match, giving my all for the team and my teammates. Everything else comes naturally."
De Winter, what has impressed you most in these first two weeks at Milan?
"Very good. I think here you lack nothing; everything is available. As a player, it’s wonderful to feel that the club does everything to make you feel good. Those are my first impressions."
