Mattia De Sciglio wary of Atletico Madrid threat

De Sciglio wary of Atletico Madrid threat

AC Milan defender Mattia De Sciglio has said that his side will face a tough test in their Champions League match with Atletico Madrid.

The two teams meet at the San Siro on Wednesday evening in the first leg of their last-16 tie, and De Sciglio has highlighted the danger posed by midfielder Arda Turan.

"It's a very difficult game and we'll try to do our best," he told Corriere della Sera. "They are very good to recover the ball and the restart, so we'll try to lose fewer balls as possible.

"Arda Turan is the player who impressed me most of all. He gives to his team quality and quantity. Atletico are a strong team but we want to do well."

De Sciglio has won eight caps for the Italian national side.
