Although Pioli wouldn’t say which clubs he was talking to, the well-informed MilanNews claims that it was city rivals Genoa and Sampdoria.”I felt a lot of emotion when Paolo called. I remember that first call very well. I was in talks with two other Serie A clubs, and I was struggling as to which one to choose between two. But when Paolo called me, I immediately changed direction and came to Milano to meet him. I didn’t have any doubts. It took him little to convince me. Indeed, perhaps I had to convince him.”##NAJAVA_MECA_6778855##Milan will host RB Leipzig on Wednesday in the Champions League, needing at least a draw to qualify for the knockout stage.
