AC Milan starlet: ‘Inter rejected me’

AC Milan youngster Matthia De Sciglio revealed that Inter decided against signing him as a boy.

“I started out as a child in my local team and have such fond memories of that time,” he told a group of children in Lainate.

“In fact, I’ll reveal something to you. I had a trial run with Inter when I was 10, but they decided against signing me because my physique was too small. Now, I am here.

“It is great to be starting a new era at Milan based on youth. We proved that we were capable of showing our worth and belong in this squad.”
