After finishing 2020 at the top of the Serie A table, Milan gear up to face Benevento in the first match of the new year. Coach Stefano Pioli discussed the game and the club plans for the transfer window in the pre-match press conference.
"We have to keep going on the same path that we have taken in 2020, which was a very positive year for us thanks to all the parties involved in the club. We start again with a lot of enthusiasm and confidence. However, what we have done in 2020 doesn't mean anything. I, we have to do even more, become even stronger. We will face a very tough opponent in Benevento, a side that plays well". Transfer window? I have an adquate squad, but the transfer window will open on Monday and the club will be ready to jump on the chance to improve the team, if this chance arise."
Pioli finally touched upon the players that are currently out injured: "Castillejo is available and will return to the team. The other players are working wll, they are trying to recover, but I can't say when they will be fully recovered. Ibrahimovic is fine and he is very focused on returning to action as soon as possibleW.
