“I’m here to tell you the next two games will be my last for Milan. I’m going to continue my career, but in the MLS. I’m very, very proud of everything I’ve done for Milan in these three years. It’s the right time to say it. Sorry, I’m a bit emotional, but my story with Milan ends this year, but Milan will remain in my heart forever.
“I have given everything I have to Milan, from 35 years more or less to today, almost 38. For me, and I think also for the family, it is the right time for a different experience of life in Milan, and nothing more.
“A family makes sacrifices throughout our careers. We are in a life that goes at 200km an hour, and today I want to think a little more about my family. But it is not the end of my career, and it is the right time to make this choice.
“I wanted to leave with a trophy. You know how much of a competitor I am. I gave everything for this shirt from the first day. The most important thing now is to keep this in second place. The last home game will be very emotional, but I want to finish well, I want to thank the fans.
