Niclas Füllkrug completed a move to AC Milan at the start of the transfer window and has already featured twice as a substitute. Füllkrug is closing in on a potential starting role against Fiorentina and is competing with Rafael Leao for minutes. Massimiliano Allegri has reacted positively to his early performances. Füllkrug describes strong emotions about joining a big club and receiving a warm San Siro welcome. He emphasizes bringing energy, positive mentality, and daily focus in training and matches to help the team maintain its position near the top.

"I feel happy, I feel grateful and proud. It's a big club and a good team in a very good moment; a very good group that has been successful. To join a good group is always great for a player, so I'm very happy yeah."

"The away game was already special. To feel that the team was happy to have me on the pitch, with the way I play, was a very good feeling. Then, of course, the warm welcome of the fans at San Siro was incredible. I felt the warm welcome and it was special for me."

"Energy. It's a very important thing, not only in football but also in life. Where attention goes, energy grows. It's very important in a season like this when you are always close to the top, you need positive energy even in bad moments. "You need characters who bring that and that's what I try to do. To have a good mindset always, every day, in training and in games."
