"It's a decision that came quite naturally, because in the last year I played, I started to not enjoy it as much as I used to. I didn't have any injuries or physical problems, but just this: I didn't feel the passion I had before. Two or three years ago, I would wake up and couldn't wait to go to the training ground. I started to feel this sensation less, my contract expired and I said enough."
"At Milan, it was amazing. Playing at San Siro for six years is a lot of adrenaline and great emotions. Every time you step onto the pitch, you wish the match would never end, even if you lose, because the atmosphere is wonderful. The Milan fans are fantastic, the stadium, everything."
