AC Milan fullback Davide Calabria admits preseason under new coach Marco Giampaolo has been strong on tactics.

Calabria, however, admits he took a lot from former coach Rino Gattuso.

He said, "Giampaolo? I expected this, I had heard that he was a master of tactics. It has only been a month, but we save good signs from the pre-season. Gattuso? He gave me mental strength, he made me feel important and this helped me grow.

"[Paolo] Maldini? I have always said that he is my idol, it is a pleasure to work together. He is our point of reference, he decides. Talking to him is a wonderful feeling.

"[Patick] Cutrone? I miss him, of course. I spoke to him recently and he is happy, I'm sure that he will do well for Wolves."
