After an excellent first season in Serie A at Brescia, Sandro Tonali made the leap to a big club by joining Milan. The Italian midfielder spoke to Sky Sport about his first few months with the rossoneri:"I was coming off a month with no activity and after vacation it was hard to go back to playing, especially on a new team. I needed time, I needed first few weeks and month to get acclaimaited. But once you know the rhythms, teammates, manager and staff, everything becomes easier joining a group like this one"
Milan means a lot to Tonali:"When you are a footballer, you play with passion because it's your love. On top of that, playing for Milan, which is my favorite team, is really beautiful. This must be considered because it's the team I always had inside me my whole life"
Tonali was asked about his current manager:"Pioli is the leader of our group. He's the first person who is telling us the right path, we are all following him together. You can talk to him for hours, he explains everything. He's open with us and we are happy to have a manager like that"
