"I thank everyone for bringing me here, I had several chances to return to Italy in recent years, but as soon as Zlatan called me, I couldn't think of anything else. This is the team that wanted me the most, they put a lot of effort into it.
At the European Championship, I already had the feeling that I was a Milan player. It's hard to find a club with such an organization, I can't wait to get on the field. I want to be a leader to push others to their maximum.
One of my football idols was Ibrahimovic. I always asked him for shirts and shoes. I don't know why he never refused me. I always dreamed of being close to him. Then I heard the names of Kaka, Shevchenko, Pato, Beckham... He told me that there was something special about AC Milan. That's why I'm here. A big part of football history is written here," TMW quoted Morata as saying.
