Fofana says ‘there are no secrets’ behind derby record: “We are very hungry” | OneFootball

Youssouf Fofana spoke to the media ahead of AC Milan’s decisive clash against Inter this evening, stating that the Rossoneri are ‘very hungry’ and eager to knock out their rivals.

Fofana is playing from start in the midfield, once again alongside Tijjani Reijnders, and he will be hoping for some more consistency after an up-and-down display against Atalanta. Given the competition, however, it’s not strange that he’s starting again.

Speaking to Mediaset ahead of the game, as transcribed by MilanNews, Fofana stated that there aren’t any secrets to Milan’s positive derby record this season (2W, 2D). He also made it clear that the Rossoneri are very hungry to clinch the win tonight and knock out their rivals.

What is the importance of this match?

“We are very hungry, it is the last chance to straighten out the season.”

Fifth derby of the season, you have never lost. What is the secret?

“There are no secrets. They are all different games, but I hope that the positive streak can continue tonight.”

It remains to be seen how it will go for Milan who, following the defeat to Atalanta, essentially only have the Coppa Italia left to clinch European football. Tonight’s game is thus incredibly important for the team, no doubt about it.
