“I’m ready to start again,” Matri assured Premium Sport.
“For the last two weeks I’ve been training with the squad. I know I’m here on loan, and I want to prove myself and do well.

“For the last two weeks I’ve been training with the squad. I know I’m here on loan, and I want to prove myself and do well.
“Italy? I’ll try to give [CT Antonio] Conte a headache and win a shirt. Meanwhile, I congratulate the whole team on achieving qualification.”
The Aquile finished third last season, with Matri on loan at Juventus, and he discussed this season’s Scudetto race.
“It’s a strange campaign, but Juventus will climb back up again. They’re definitely good, they’ll be there until the end.
“Milan? [Coach Sinisa] Mihajlovic is working well, he needs time to impose his game. We’ll see after the international breaks if there have been improvements.”
