On the subject, the Monza native revealed an important backstory.

"De Zerbi wanted to come to Milan, he would have come running. He showed me the picture of him when he was Rossoneri. When you talk to him, you hear what some people call Milanism, forò then things went differently and the meneghini decided to bet on Paulo Fonseca" began the'former defender born in 1963.

"I rushed to see him when he had finished training with Marseille and he never stops, è always theì moving, studying and talking. He's totally immersed in the reality in which he goes to work, because he wants to involve everyone, from the players to the staff, and he lives 24 hours a day for the good of the club in which he trains" added the former Rossoneri center.

"Marseille has always had its own precise identity" but Roberto’s transition, which I hope can be as long as possible, will leave something behind and allow" to build a certain type of football identity" concluded Filippo Galli.
