Diaz: ‘The anti-Naples recipe? Keeping the ball, they are not used to without…’

He was among the players who generated the most regrets among the Rossoneri after the match against Empoli. Brahim Diaz is going through a golden moment and the Milan fans, after seeing him at work magnificently at the San Paolo, are rubbing their hands in anticipation of the first round of the Champions League with Napoli. And he? Well, he enjoys the moment: “When I was little it was incredible to watch a Champions League match – he told Starcasino -. Now I can play it. And doing it in a historic club like Milan is very nice. If I’m a Champions player? Yes, I play for Milan. We are all Champions players and that is why we are among the top eight in Europe. We deserved to be here: last year we won the Scudetto and this year we are among the strongest in Europe”.

Growth

Then, on the importance of Milan: “It has improved my characteristics. I’ve grown so much here and I still have to grow. If I have to choose one of my goals, I’ll say the one against Juventus, very nice. But whoever scores, scores. I just want to help the team win. Naples? Technically they are strong, but so are we. The fact that we know each other is important, it’s a balanced game. A quality to put them in trouble? There are many. One is to have control of the ball during the match because they are not used to being without it.”
