AC Milan GM Adriano Galliani insists Mattia de Sciglio is not for sale. The defender is being linked with Real Madrid.
Galliani said: "De Sciglio is the symbol of Milan's youth academy, as he arrived at Vismara aged 10 and climbed all the way through the ranks. I told all the young players that our hope is they can become like him.
"Mattia did well for Italy this week in a system that he's not accustomed to, impressing out wide in a 3-5-2. He is versatile and can play any role, left or right, while he even played centre-back once.
"If we didn't have Diego Lopez, we'd put him in goal too!"
