The words of Strahinja Pavlovic

Milan’s new defender Strahinja Pavlovic spoke to MilanTv: "My name means 'fearless'. I like it, it describes me well. I started training when I was six years old and it was love at first sight. This club had great defenders like Maldini, Stam and Nesta: they were fantastic but unfortunately I was too young to follow them"

He then revealed his idol: "Among the Serbs, I was inspired by Vidic. I think he was very strong because of his style of play, I watched him when I was younger and I always followed him. He è was my inspiration".

The new Rossoneri central has already had a chance to tread the San Siro pitch in a Salzburg jersey, both against AC Milan and Inter: "I will never forget the moment I entered the field for the warm-up, a very warm environment. I è loved it even as an opponent".

"Fonseca? I’m ready to fight, we’ll see what the coach expects from me" he commented on the Diavolo’s new coach.
