Tijjani Reijndersmidfielder of Milan and of theHollandspoke at a press conference from the retreat of the national team coached by Roenald Koeman, expressing himself thus, as reported by De Telegraafon his first season with the Rossoneri: “At the beginning it takes a bit of time to get used to and adapt. In reality, it was immediately clear to me what my role was in the group at Milan and what they expected from me. I managed to do it well this season. Beyond this we have been helped a lot by the people who work at Milan.”
How did you learn to handle the different pressure compared to the one you had at AZ?
“If you play for Holland or Milan it’s normal for there to be pressure. It’s a kind of habit. You always want to perform for yourself and for the fans. I hope I can continue the trend this season.”
How is he physically?
“I’m fresh and rested. I didn’t suffer from jet lag and I’m also fine physically. During the match in Australia I was thinking about the European Championship.”
Do you feel treated differently in the national team now that you play for a top world club like Milan?
“The first time I came here to the national team I played for AZ. Obviously it’s different when you play for Milan, but I never feel treated differently.”
