Boniek backing Piatek for great success at AC Milan

Poland legend Zbigniew Boniek is backing Krzysztof Piatek for great success at AC Milan.

The former Genoa striker completed his move on Wednesday.

"I divide players into two categories: those who want to earn money in their careers and those who want to play football. Piatek belongs to the second category," Polish football chief Boniek told Gazzetta dello Sport.

“He has everything to succeed. He's a good lad, intelligent and he's advised well. In addition, he has a woman beside him, Paulina, who gives him the right balance, and that helps him make the right decisions.

“Pressure? No, for me Piatek is someone who can play for any team in the world. He won't struggle to make the step-up, I'm sure of it.

“Of course, no-one says anything if you don't score for 2-3 games at Genoa but maybe at Milan they'll put you on a timer. Still, he'll be able to adapt."
