Abraham: ‘Want to show everyone I am back’ after injury

The centre-forward arrived on loan from Roma, with Alexis Saelemaekers going the other way to the Stadio Olimpico, and is well aware that many fans weren’t entirely happy that coach Paulo Fonseca wanted him.

“We are very happy. We know that Inter are a good team, but today we played with confidence, courage, passion and must gain belief from this to continue along this path,” Abraham told DAZN in a mixture of Italian and English.

The 26-year-old has found the net once with two assists in just four appearances for the Rossoneri.

“I came off the back of last season with a big injury, so I had to show everyone that I am back, I am here to help the team as much as possible, to give my team and the fans belief again.”

This was only the second win of the campaign for Milan, after a 4-0 over Venezia, between Serie A and the Champions League.
