Simon Kjaer says Milan ‘have done nothing yet’ and reveals how Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been helping the Rossoneri.

The Danish defender spoke at a press conference ahead of Thursday’s Europa League clash against his former club Lille.

“The time I was in Lille was important for me, after a period in Germany. It was a beautiful time, my first child was born when I was in France.

“I had a great time there, I improved up a lot in two years. We had a very strong team.

The Danish defender spoke at a press conference ahead of Thursday’s Europa League clash against his former club Lille.

“The time I was in Lille was important for me, after a period in Germany. It was a beautiful time, my first child was born when I was in France.

“I had a great time there, I improved up a lot in two years. We had a very strong team.

“Now the team has changed completely, but the players of Lille are always strong and they are really well organized as a club. It’s always a pleasure to play against them.”

Stefano Pioli is rotating his players but Kjaer is one of those who are always on the pitch.

“I prefer to play. I feel better when I’m on the pitch than when I stay outside,” the experienced centre-back said.

“I’m glad that physically we’re all fine. We haven’t done anything yet, though.

“I’m not here on vacation, I’m doing my best every day to help the team. I never had any doubts about my qualities, but I know there is a lot of work behind it.

"We’ve improved in both phases since I arrived.”

Are the players talking about the Scudetto?

“It’s been a fantastic journey. We’ve improved so much. We have so many qualities everywhere. This is a young team, with huge potential. We are happy where we are, but we do not talk about what will be in 6 months.”

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has had a great start of the season with eight goals in seven games so far.

"Everyone at Milan feels his [Ibrahimovic’s] presence. Zlatan is a very serious and professional person who brings so much to everyone.

“He has only one goal, which is to win. We all go in that direction, we’ve grown so much in terms of mentality.”
