AC Milan chief Maldini proud of team's title triumph | OneFootball

AC Milan chief Paolo Maldini is proud seeing the club finish champions of Italy.

Victory at Sassuolo confirmed Milan title winners for season 2021/22.

Maldini said, "As a player, you can put all your energy on the pitch. As a director, you can't do that, so your wife and children have to deal with youth highs and lows at home. However, there is one common thing, and it's passion. First of all, for this sport and Milan.

“My career as a director exists only because of Milan. It's not something I had planned after the end of my playing career. I took time, I've tried to understand and learn, waiting for the right moment, and I was lucky."

He also said: “We have a young team, with many players who need trust and one of the secrets of these three years was to respect what we told the players. Many things happened because we've always had a program and a credible idea. That's what we must do as directors,"
