The arrival of Santiago Giménez at AC Milan has generated great expectations, not only because of his talent but also due to the warm welcome he received from the fans and club legends like Franco Baresi and Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The latter particularly highlighted the Mexican forward, even predicting his impact in the upcoming UEFA Champions League playoff series against Feyenoord.
During a press conference, Ibrahimovic praised Giménez's qualities and assured that he will be key for Milan in the upcoming matches, especially in the knockout series against Feyenoord in Rotterdam. Zlatan confidently stated that Giménez will play and score in that match, showing his full faith in the Mexican's potential to make a difference.
Ibrahimovic's prediction carries weight as he understands the importance of playing at Feyenoord, the club where Santiago previously played. Despite this, Zlatan is convinced that the Mexican has what it takes to be a key factor in this crucial stage of the 2024-2025 Champions League.
For his part, Santiago Giménez expressed enthusiasm for this new chapter at Milan, a club he considers one of the biggest in Europe. 'One of my biggest dreams as a child was to come to Europe. My motivation now is to leave a mark on this historic club,' he expressed excitedly when talking about his arrival at the Italian team.
