“I wouldn’t want to reach Buffon’s age by playing again, but I feel good and therefore the following weeks will be weeks of reflection. Today I would like to continue, I feel good and this season I also had the chance to play a few games.” To the microphones of Radio TV Serie A talk like this Antonio Mirantegoalkeeper born in 1983, who on Saturday against Salernitana took to the field for the last time wearing the Milan shirt: “The future depends a bit on the path that everyone has taken, on how you feel, on where you play and how you approached the last football year, without forgetting the importance of the motivation that pushes you to move forward. Injuries certainly affect a player’s career and for me now thinking of going abroad is almost impossible.”
On Fonseca and the probable coach for the future “Fonseca is a coach who likes to play football, he is an offensive coach and has a good approach with the boys. I had him for two years in Rome, with all the problems linked to that period in that place and in my opinion despite everything he has done well. He is a prepared coach who follows his path; he is pragmatic and ambitious. Milan is a Club that aims to win, the objectives are important and therefore Fonseca (or whoever takes over) will have huge inherited responsibilities. from Pioli. We are less informed than you and it is not easy, but I think it was a thoughtful choice. Milan is a Club that stays with you for its charm, history and the working environment in these recent years have been fundamental environments in which to grow and improve.”
The strongest goalkeepers. “Maignan and Donnarumma are very strong goalkeepers, different, but with great talent. Gigio has made Italy’s fortune and will certainly do so again. Mike is an incredible professional, a total goalkeeper who is destined to improve further in the coming years; You can perceive his charisma just by looking at him. In the dressing room you know he’s there, he conveys certainty and this quality is essential for his role.”
