Arriving at AC Milan in the summer of 2021, Sandro Tonali has established himself in the squad over the course of less. But the Italian midfielder revealed that the acclimatization has not been a very easy thing. At one point, wearing the Rossoneri shirt was a burden for him.

“The first days were a delirium. The first year was difficult. It was not easy to distinguish between the fans and the players, but after a period of adaptation, I managed to do it. At the beginning, it was a burden to wear this jersey, I was in a situation where I had to try not to disappoint. I was afraid, I came from Brescia, everything was different, I also changed with difficulties and obstacles, but with the help of Pioli I overcame everything. I talked a lot with the coach, he helped me a lot. And now he is doing the same thing with other players who are going through what I went through. I never thought I would not make it, playing in an empty stadium helped me at the beginning,” said Sandro Tonali to DAZN.
