AC Milan vice-president Franco Baresi is happy Paolo Maldini is proving himself as technical director.
Baresi says it's important for the club to have such a legend in a position of responsibility.
He said, "It's important to have people like us in the club, in order to remember history. Those who arrive are stimulated by certain figures and immediately understand the values of this club.
"Paolo was a phenomenal player and, as a director, he is demonstrating all his qualities.
“He is always attentive, scrupulous, competent, he wants Milan to be protagonist in the future as we did in the past, despite the difficulties. He should be admired for what he does and for what he gives to Milan, even off the pitch."
