Real Madrid keeper coach Vecchi backing Diego Lopez for AC Milan success

Real Madrid goalkeeper coach Villiam Vecchi is backing Diego Lopez for great success at AC Milan.

The Spaniard is on the brink of signing for Milan.

"Diego López is a keeper that knows how to do everything. Technically he's complete. Psychologically, after such a difficult year, he's shown he knows how to handle the pressure. He's an extraordinary person with only one fault: he hates letting in goals. I've seen him get very angry, even in training," Vecchi said.

"He has great positioning and can play with both feet. He's excellent at coming off his line and great with his feet. He's one of the best keepers I've ever trained. His greatest strength? His reflexes. Although he's 6'4" he's really quick."
