Former Milan midfielder Tijjani Reijnders, now at Manchester City, says he still follows the Rossoneri closely and believes they have what it takes to win the Scudetto this season.
Speaking to SportMediaset, via TuttoSport, the Dutch international admitted he will be glued to the screen for this weekend’s Derby della Madonnina, and made no secret of who he’ll be supporting:
“Of course I’ll watch the derby, no doubt about it – I’ll be cheering for Milan. They’re doing a really good job at the moment, and obviously the derby will be a tough game. But I’m confident Milan can win it.”
The Dutchman joined Pep Guardiola’s side in the summer for around €55 million, after a standout season at San Siro, where his technique and energy quickly made him a fan favourite.
Despite his success in the Premier League, with one goal and two assists in ten appearances so far, his affection for Milan remains strong.
“Can Milan win the Scudetto? I think they can. The opportunity is there this year: they’re doing excellent work. I really hope the club can soon achieve that second star.”
Reijnders also looked ahead to the Netherlands’ upcoming World Cup qualifier against Lithuania:
“We’re on the right track, but it’s not done yet. We need to finish the job on Monday and be ready for a difficult match.”
