AC Milan manager heaps praise on Chukwueze and Okafor after trophy win

West Ham attacking midfielder Lucas Paqueta is the subject of interest from Manchester City, with the champions ready to make a bid.

Christian Pulisic was particularly impressive, scoring Milan's goal in the first half and the other new signings made their mark.

Milan coach Stefano Pioli heaped praise on his players afterwards, especially new signing Samuel Chukwueze.

We are a good unit. We can play in more ways than one, Chukwueze has arrived who can give us great one-on-one on the outside, Pulisic can play as a trequartista, Okafor can also play as a centre forward and second striker. I have versatile players.” he said, as quoted by Milan Posts.

He added: “I like the way the new players are fitting in and the spirit of the team. We are working well to arrive at the start of the championship in the best possible way”

The Rossoneri open their season with a clash against Bologna on August 21.
