Carlo Ancelotti has increased the pressure on Milan new boy Alexandre Pato by insisting that he can outshine long-term target Ronaldinho.
The 18-year-old signed from Brazilian side Internacional in the summer and will be available to make his first full appearances for the Rossoneri after January 3.
“I’d say that Alexandre is better than Ronaldinho,†Ancelotti boasted to La Gazzetta dello Sport.
The starlet made his non-competitive debut for the Diavolo in a friendly against Dynamo Kiev on September 3 and marked the occasion with a headed goal.
“He is a phenomenon and with him available we can return to playing with two strikers,†Carletto revealed.
The struggling European champions are eagerly awaiting his contribution to their Serie A campaign and sources inside the club suggest that he has shown devastating talent in training.
Despite Milan’s poor form, Ancelotti concluded by maintaining that his side are still in the title hunt.
“I still think we can win the Scudetto because it is a very strange and even championship this year,†he stressed.
