Experience with AC Milan Made Leonardo Bonucci Feels Mature

DBasia.news –  A season with AC Milan has made senior central defender, Leonardo Bonucci, feel more like a mature player. He also admitted that his experience with the team really helped him to grow.

The experienced defender moved to San Siro at the start of the 2017/18 season from Juventus, before returning to Turin the following summer.

Although not enjoying the best season with Il Diavolo Rosso, the 32-year-old player admitted, his year at Milan has given a number of positive impacts in his career.

 “If I think back to Leonardo two or three years ago, I would not have made a certain decision,” Bonucci admitted on Thursday at the Allianz Stadium.

“The decision to head to Milan, as everyone knows, made me a man. It was a big opportunity and maybe it was too big for me at that time.

 “Young Leonardo is too fiery. When you meet someone who gives you good advice for yourself, you must have the humility to listen. “

Then the Italian international defender added, he was influenced by the former Milan defender.

“I watched a lot of Alessandro Nesta videos, as he has the same characteristics, study them carefully and apply them to myself,” added Bonucci.
