(ANSA) - MILAN, 22 JAN - "I thank the owners and the company that have been ready on the market. Our goal does not change, we want to try to finish in the top four and it's a seven-team race", said the Milan coach, Stefano Pioli, comments on the transfer market operations of the Rossonero club that have guaranteed him a reinforcement for each department: Meitéa midfield, Mandzukic in attack and now Tomori in defense.
The Chelsea defender, who arrives on loan with the right of redemption for around 28 million, is expected in the next few hours in Milan and his contract has already been deposited by the company.
"He has aggressiveness, speed - says Pioli - I've only seen him from the videos but the impressions are positive. We need to know each other better and give him the time to get involved in our mechanisms".
Meanwhile, Pioli can count on Theo Hernandez's return, a 'false positive' result at Covid "I am satisfied with the recovery, it gives us offensive alternatives".
Rebic and Krunic, negative to Covid, are also included: "They are happy, they are used to always running with the ball. Stopping for two weeks is not easy ..", explains Pioli.
