“I am very happy with the Rossoneri. I hope that the Number 9 left to me by Inzaghi can bring me luck, as I want to score many goals. Nobody knows the future, but I can only say that I am very happy at Milan.”
The Brazilian international is currently on international duty with his national side in London Olympics, where his team is being considered the favourites to take the football gold.
