The current Qatar SC playmaker said he was very close to joining the Rossoneri, after his departure from US Palermo. Finally convinced by the Rouge et Bleu project, the player trained at CA Talleres has finally made the choice to join the French capital in August 2011.

“Milan was the team I wanted to join after Palermo, he admitted during an interview with journalist Mattia Zupo. They looked for me, but ultimately, with Zamparini, we opted for the PSG project: they told me that they wanted to win in France and in Europe and that, to do so, they would take the best players in the world , And that’s what happened. Over the years there were contacts to return to Italy and Milan were interested, but my choice was always to stay in Paris. “, added the Cordoba native.
