MILAN – This is what Davide Calabria had to say during the Media Day ahead of the Italian Cup final against Juventus:

“It is a great excitement to be at Milan and have the chance to play the Italian Cup final at the first season. I’m ready and I’m working hard. I feel calm now but we’ll see on Saturday. We need to improve all our sides, if we didn’t win either last year or this, it means we have to change something.
I have been with the coach since the youth team, I was always playing and was very confident. I think I have returned almost to my 100% and I think I’m ready to play against Juventus on Saturday. You improve more and more when you play in a first team for one year, you learn and grow. I’m happy with my season, I hope to do better and better.
Regarding the discussion with the coach, it is normal to have one in a dark period. He spoke to the team and tried to boost and motivate all of us. We will try to give our best in the last challenge of the season. I hope the coach remains here, I feel good with him and the same is for the rest of the team. I was happy for the discussion with him, he gave us a boost and we can only do better.”
