The AC Milan full-back reflected on the mass exodus at the club after coming back from his vacations; however, Abate has faith in the management of the Diavolo.
Much has been stated on the impact of the mass exodus at the club; which has seen twelve players leave the club and Milan has signed only a handful of players.
All the Italian internationals of the Serie A club are joining their club team-mates who have been at the Rossoneri training base for the past two weeks.
Abate has seen many of the club’s experienced legendary players leave the club, and he has conceded that he is still coming to terms with the fact that he will not be playing with them in the upcoming campaign.
The Diavolo have severed ties with several experienced campaigners like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mark-van-Bommel-c24148; furthermore, the club did not
buy http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809.
Probably the biggest loss in the Diavolo ranks has to be of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Thiago-Silva-c34903; who were shipped off to Paris Saint-Germain. The Parc de Princes outfit bid 60 million Euros for the services of the two players, a bid which was consequently
accepted by the San Siro outfit.
Abate went on to state that there was time left to acquire quality players, and spoke of his faith in Silvio Berlusconi and Adriano Galliani. The Azzurri right-back stated:
“It is too early to pass judgment. As long as President Silvio Berlusconi and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Adriano-c3773 Galliani are here, I am certain by August 31 we will be a competitive squad.”
Furthermore, he went on to state that he will miss Ibrahimovic, and how different the locker room would be without the club’s legends; and remarked:
“Everyone will miss Ibrahimovic, but coming here and not seeing people like Gattuso, Nesta and Inzaghi is really strange. This year we all have to shoulder more responsibility.”
Galliani and Allegri have reassured their fans that they have a plan of action and rebuked suggestions that the club is in free fall.
