"I wanted to come on. I was ready, I thought it was a good time to make a change. We were attacking a lot. Great assist from Alexis, receiving an assist like that is every striker's dream."
"Incredibly good. I'm truly grateful to be here and wear this jersey. The team welcomed me very warmly. Trust is important for a striker."
AC Milan beat Lecce thanks to a poacher's goal from Niclas Fullkrug. Fullkrug entered in the 73rd minute and scored in the 77th to give Milan the lead. He joined as a low-cost, physical option to provide a different profile in the box and has been used more often than initially expected. Reports had suggested a potential month-long injury absence, yet he has featured regularly. Fullkrug said he was ready to come on, praised Alexis's assist, expressed gratitude for the warm welcome, and emphasized trust as important for a striker.
