Italian midfielder Giacomo Bonaventura was overcome with emotion when he completed his move to AC Milan.
The 25 year old made the switch to the San Siro on deadline day after seven years at Atalanta.
“When Giacomo signed, he cried,” Bonaventura’s agent Giocondo Martorelli told the Italian media.
“For Giacomo it is a dream to play for Milan.”
Bonaventura made his debut for Italy against San Marino last year but has failed to add to his one cap.
Martorelli claims that part of Bonaventura’s thinking in moving to Milan was to increase his chances of playing for the national side.
“Now Giacomo is at a side like Milan, his goal is to convince Antonio Conte that he is worthy of a place in the Italian side.”
