The Rossoneri legend revealed his decision to bid farewell to the Milanello, once his contract with the Italian giants comes to a conclusion at the end of the month.
Seedorf’s departure will also mean that the coveted number 10 shirt will be up for grab, but the midfielder revealed that the jersey will go to Ibrahimovic.
The Dutch international revealed that he never wanted the number on his jersey, but inherited the shirt from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Costa-c9458.
The Rossoneri midfielder mentioned that it was him that went to the Swede, and offered him the opportunity to get his name on the shirt.
While talking to the press, the 36-year-old said:
“The No 10 jersey will go to Ibrahimovic. I never asked for the 10, I inherited it from Manuel Rui Costa. But I’ve spoken to Ibra and told him that I would be pleased if it was passed to him – he deserves it.”
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Adriano-c3773 Galliani then took over the microphone, and paid tribute to Seedorf for his splendid career.
AC Milan vice-president stressed that the Dutch international is one of the most decorated player in the world, having won four Champions League titles.
The Rossoneri chief pointed out that he also helped propel Real Madrid to an European trophy before his move to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan, and joked that the achievement also counts as half a title.
The Diavolo executive went on to hail Seedorf for his adaptability, and stated that he will always cherish the memories of the veteran midfielder.
“He’s a player who has won four and a half Champions League titles. He won at Ajax, Real Madrid and two at Milan, but also a half one with Real before he went to Inter. He’s had an extraordinary career and I have great memories of him. He was someone who
was able to play in a variety of roles.”
Clarence Seedorf is expected to continue playing the game, but is yet to announce his next destination.
