'It will be a journey we will pursue together to achieve a challenging and compelling project, one which will require great energy and dedication.
'I am confident Paolo will be able to project his experience, his vision and his leadership.
'Paolo is an integral part of AC Milan and knows the way to success. He will be an important point of reference for everyone.'
