— I was surprised when I found out that “Milan” would play a Serie A match against “Como” in Australia! This is simply madness. So much talk about tight match schedules and player health. It all looks absurd. Just insane — to travel so far to hold a Serie A match. We just need to make this decision, as always,” said Adrien Rabiot.

It is worth noting that the match between “Milan” and “Como” is being relocated due to the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympic Games.
