"With Werder and with BVB and the national team, things were going great for those three or four years. I was playing regularly, scoring and getting assists. That's the level I want to get back to. I want to be available and contribute with goals and good performances. West Ham wasn't an easy place. I came in after a very long season, with 57 games. I couldn't prepare well in pre-season because of the Euros. I moved to West Ham without being able to prepare on a physical level."
"Things didn't work out for me in England, but I hope to turn the page. I feel fresh, fit. I've felt good over the last two games. The medical team in Milan have helped me, they've given me an excellent training program. The feeling is good, I hope it continues like this because then I'll be sure to score goals. How many, I don't know. If the ball lands in the box, I will try to put it in the back of the net. We'll see how many at the end of the season, but I hope to score some big goals."
Niclas Fullkrug signed a six-month loan with AC Milan on January 2, with Milan holding an option to make the move permanent. He endured a frustrating 18 months at West Ham, featuring under three different managers, scoring three Premier League goals in 26 appearances and recording only two starts and 178 minutes under current boss Nuno Espirito Santo. Prior to West Ham, Fullkrug played a key role for Borussia Dortmund in the 2024 Champions League run and for Germany at Euro 2024. Fullkrug cites fatigue and poor pre-season preparation after a 57-game season and the Euros, and says Milan’s medical staff have helped him feel fit and confident to score again.
