Tomori: As long as the management wants me, I will stay in Milan; if I win the championship, I will dye my hair blonde

Hupu, October 23 News AC Milan defender Tomori accepted an interview with Slow Motion TV today.

Milan took first place in the standings last Sunday...

"We are very happy, we played a good game against Fiorentina and the team atmosphere is good. But the coach keeps reminding us to focus on the next game, which is what we are doing now, in order to continue to stay at the top."

Is this your 'second life' in the Rossoneri?

"Yes, I think it is true for all of us. Last year was not ideal, this year we have new players and a new coach, and now the atmosphere in the team is completely different. We started the new season in good form and hope to maintain it, not only in terms of individual performance Performance, including team performance. The head coach has some specific requirements for me, and I work hard to fulfill these requirements. I am very satisfied with my performance and happy with the team's overall performance."

Do you believe that you can be selected for the England team and participate in the World Cup?

"Of course, I have spoken with Tuchel several times and I know what I have to do. I understand that as long as I play well in Milan, I will get a call-up to the national team, at least I hope so. I have to focus on the job in front of me and when that moment comes, I will be ready. The World Cup is every player's dream, and it is the same for me."

You are one of the few players left in the 2022 championship-winning squad... Are there any similarities between now and then?

"I'm not sure. Our current team is different and the atmosphere is different, but there are some similarities: we all have that good team feeling, and everyone plays with a 'fight one game at a time' mentality. Now we have to face Pisa, then Atalanta, and then Roma, and we will also focus on every game like the coach said. It's too early to talk about 'winning the league title,' but we are in a good situation at the moment. The next game against Pisa is an opportunity for us to show our strength."

Talk about contract renewal:

"As I have always said since joining, Milan is a great club. As long as the management does not say 'enough' to me, I will stay here, this is my home. To be honest, I am not too Think more about the contract extension, because I want to focus on the next game, which is what the coach wants us to do. I will think about it when the club comes to talk to me about the contract."

Can Modric lead the team like Ibrahimovic in 2022?

"It is possible that although the two of them are different, they both have rich experience. Ibrahimovic's method is more tough, and he will use words to inspire the team; while Modric demonstrates with actions, he shows how to play, how to train, and how to face the game. They are both role models worth learning from, and Ibrahimovic also uses actions to demonstrate. Back then, we had a younger squad; now we have a more experienced squad. Ibrahimovic almost single-handedly brought that league title, and now we have five or six important players, including Modric, and experience will really pay off."

What would you do if you win the league again?

"I haven't thought about it yet... maybe I'll dye my hair blond, if we do something extraordinary (laughs)."

What language do you use to communicate in the locker room?

"English, French, Italian, Spanish... Some of the new players don't speak Italian very well, such as Odogu, Atekame and Nkunku, but we can always find a way to communicate on the court."
