You played against Modric and he will join Allegri's new Milan

"Unfortunately, I remember those two games (smiling). Tottenham eliminated us in the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals in 2010/11, In San Siro we lost 0-1 and in London we had a blank score. ”

Euvestabia's first official game will be the Italian Cup against Lecce, you will face a familiar player: Camarada

"In my coaching career, I have had the honor to start with youth training. From the U16 to the Milan youth team, we even played a historic final with Olympiacos in the Youth League. Camarada is a good kid, and if he keeps being humble and keeps improving in his daily training, he will become an outstanding player, he is destined to be a "

If you advance, then next is a match against Milan, and the game will be played in San Siro. "We won't see too far, first we have to go through this level of Lecce. Going back to that stadium means a lot to me, but now I don't think about it."

What are your goals

"I want to convey my football philosophy and build a strong connection with the team and the fans. Respect, unity and the strength of the team will set my Youvestabia apart and we will give everything to these colors."
