The 21-year-old has now played for Manchester City, Real Madrid and Milan in his short career.

“It’s true there were a lot of offers, but Milan are a historic club with a great project in place, who have been winning pretty much week in, week out since lockdown. The warmth they showed me and the interest they had in signing me made me go for this great club.

“They’re a huge club with so much history, and they have a great project in place. We’ve got a great group of lads, we’re on a winning run and we’re looking to keep that going. The aim is to be like the Milan of old once more, and I think the club is on course to achieve that. There’s a lot of excitement and we have a winning team.

“I want to show the potential I have. Show the world what I can do. Hopefully I can perform well.”

Brahim Diaz also gets to be teammates with a legend like Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

“It’s no secret what a top player and dressing-room presence he is. He’s a great guy who really tries to help you.”
