"My ankle is fixed, get ready! They [Milan] must see something in me because, even though I haven't performed as well as I would have liked and haven't yet shown who I am and what I can do, they have faith in my abilities and have defended me on many occasions when I've been criticised, and I really appreciate that."
"AC Milan is a team I've dreamed of playing for since I was a kid. I'd watch Dida, Kaká, Crespo, Ronaldinho, and Pirlo and it gave me goosebumps. Wearing their jersey is a source of great pride for me. Dreams do come true, and the fact that they have faith in me, even though I haven't achieved great sporting results myself, is something I really appreciate."
Santiago Gimenez completed a big-money move from Feyenoord to AC Milan almost a year ago and arrived with high expectations as a long-term number nine. He began positively but experienced a slowdown as the team struggled, and transfer speculation surfaced before he remained at the club. A persistent ankle issue required surgery, and he is still recovering with an expected return after March. The club has shown faith in his abilities and defended him amid criticism. Gimenez expresses pride in wearing the Milan jersey and describes a friendly relationship with teammate Luka Modric.
