AC Milan boss Inzaghi: Mourinho convinced me about Torres

AC Milan boss Pippo Inzaghi is delighted with their deal for Chelsea striker Fernando Torres. Torres flew in today for his medical and will complete the two-year loan deal from Chelsea.

"I spoke to Mourinho, as I wanted to ask him how Torres was," explained Inzaghi in his Press conference.

"I wanted to ask what he was like and his general attitude, although from the outside he already seemed to be a good professional. Those sensations were confirmed.

"We thought Torres was a player who could give us a big hand. I sought information on his approach to training and his attitude.

"When they told me he is always the first to arrive at the training ground, I had no doubts in giving the all-clear.

"What a player is like as a man is fundamental and comes before everything."
