Alen Halilovic delighted with first weeks at AC Milan

AC Milan midfielder Alen Halilovic is delighted with his first weeks at his new club.

Halilovic has joined Milan from Hamburg SV this summer.

“I'm very happy to be here in America. We're working hard, even though it's very hot," the 22-year-old said in a video posted by the club on Twitter.

“Gattuso is happy, he supports us and works with us, always giving everything and protecting us. I'm really happy to be coached by Gattuso.

“The campaign is the most important thing for us. We still have time to ensure we're as prepared as possible.

“Tour of the US? This stadium in Minnesota is one of the best I've ever seen. I'm very happy to have the chance of playing against Tottenham.

“How do I find myself with my teammates? They're giving me a big hand, and I'll start learning Italian once we get back.

“It's important for each player to understand their Coach and teammates. We have three big matches here in America and we're getting ready to face them in the best way possible."
