AC Milan title winner Stefano Pioli: Management delivered an ideal balanced squad | OneFootball

AC Milan coach Stefano Pioli says management delivered an ideally balanced squad for this season's title triumph.

Pioli praised the club's directors for their work in the transfer market.

He told the Athletic: "The line the club wanted to follow was clear. I was informed. The club has been stopped. The work we were doing has received a lot of support. When you work with a lot of young players, there is a need for time. You need trust. The club gave it to us.

“What I would like to say is that the management did not give me only young players. They gave me good young players with many qualities. Furthermore, I have worked with high level players, like Olivier Giroud, like Zlatan, like Kjaer, like Alessandro Florenzi and Mike Maignan who already had a lot of experience, experience in the national team, experience fighting for the title.

"They have been a point of reference for me and for the young players."
