00:00What does it mean to you to be a fan of AC Milan?

00:02For me, AC Milan is a strong emotion,

00:05even though I don't hide the fact that I've been a fan of it since I was a kid.

00:11So, coming here to AC Milan and seeing so many photos,

00:17these colours that have accompanied me throughout my childhood and adolescence,

00:22has been something really special for me.

00:26It would be difficult to find the right words to describe what I'm feeling right now.

00:31It's a reason for great pride, the calling of a prestigious club worldwide like AC Milan,

00:40and so I'm also aware of the great responsibilities that I'm taking on.

00:46So, there's great happiness, now it's really a whirlwind of emotions,

00:51but at the same time, there's a great desire to embark on this magnificent journey.

00:58For me, Roma has been an extremely instructive experience,

01:03because it's a club that has given me so much over the last two years.

01:08I've had the chance to share my daily work with Mr. Mourinho first and then with Mr. De Rossi.

01:15I've had the chance to win important trophies, such as the Coppa Italia and the Super Cup.

01:22It's a shame that we weren't able to end our journey with the win at the Scudetto,

01:30but the thing I like the most is that we were able to make so many debuts,

01:37bringing the lads to the top of the league.

01:40That's why I think that for us, young people in the youth sector,

01:44it's our mission and our greatest achievement.

01:50It was the strongest motivation that led me to accept AC Milan's offer,

01:57as well as the club's great reputation,

02:00because I've spent so many years with Professor Vergine.

02:05I've shared with him the vision of the youth sector,

02:09the vision of how we want young players to grow,

02:14and I share with him all the values that we need to achieve the biggest goal,

02:21which is to try and project as many players as possible into football.

02:27It was a great motivation for me,

02:30because after all the years we've spent together,

02:34we've established a relationship that goes beyond the professional aspect.

02:38For me, that's the biggest thing.

02:44I had the pleasure of meeting Mr Abate during my two years at Roma.

02:50I know how well he's done,

02:53because I've often congratulated him,

02:57because the team has shown great football,

03:00and that's certainly one of the reasons why he's given so much to the lads.

03:07I think I've seen them grow over the last two years.

03:10I share the club's philosophy,

03:13because I think that being able to anticipate as much as possible,

03:18the player can then accelerate the path of entry into adult football,

03:25so I'll take all my experience, which I've gained over the years,

03:31and try to give something extra to achieve this type of goal,

03:37following in the footsteps of Mr Abate.

03:40My way of overcoming this is to always try and study,

03:45to learn as much as possible from those who are doing very well,

03:50in this case in the youth sector.

03:52There were a lot of players who had made their way into the second team abroad,

03:58and who managed to make their way into the first teams of clubs with a very high European profile,

04:07and even into the major national teams.

04:10So for me, it was an instrument that we had to reach in Italy as well.

04:18I think that AC Milan, like Juventus and Atalanta, firmly believe in the Under-23 project.

04:25For me, it's an instrument that allows us to have even more years to train the lad,

04:33and above all to shorten, never lose control,

04:37and then be able to project it into our first team,

04:41which, as I said before, is the result and the goal that we all set for ourselves.

04:45Clearly, whoever does this job, in any sport,

04:49you always play to win.

04:52The problem is to be able to win by following the right path,

04:57without speculating about the result,

05:01but how you manage to achieve it.

05:05And so, through the improvement of every single player,

05:08I have to try and win the game.

05:10The biggest dream is to be able to project as many lads as possible,

05:15the lads that I will coach,

05:17perhaps by winning a few trophies here at AC Milan.

05:20So I would like to combine the emotions of the moment,

05:23that only victory can give you,

05:26to reach the ultimate goal,

05:29which is to see, perhaps, one of my players

05:31wearing AC Milan's jersey at the San Siro.

05:34This would be the biggest dream.
