Emanuelson thrilled with move to AC Milan: I want to learn from legends

Former Ajax wing-back Urby Emanuelson is delighted with his move to AC Milan.

The young Dutchman signed a three-year deal with Milan yesterday.

"Coming to Milan is a dream come true," said Emanuelson.

"It all happened on Wednesday, the negotiations were closed quickly and now I am here. I'm immediately at the disposal of the Coach and hope to make my debut as soon as possible. I will work hard for my place.

"I can play anywhere, either in midfield or in defence, both the right and left. What do I do best? I'm better when attacking.

"My objective is to win trophies and I feel that I can do that here. I've known Zlatan Ibrahimovic since our time together at Ajax.

"Then there are legends like Gennaro Gattuso and Andrea Pirlo, Clarence Seedorf and Alexandre Pato. I hope they can all teach me something about the sport."
