Charles De Ketelaere says it was the 'project' at AC Milan that made him choose the Italian giants over Leeds United. The Whites wanted to sign the striker from Club Brugge this summer, but the Belgian made it clear that his preference was to join AC Milan.
Leeds had an offer on the table for the 21-year-old for much of the summer, and it took some time for AC Milan to meet Brugge's demands for the player. A deal was eventually agreed, and he has joined the club on a five-year deal.
“The last few weeks have been difficult," De Ketelaere said during his unveiling at his new club. "You know what happened, I have always expressed my desire to my agents to go to Milan. I had to give something up, but the most important thing for me was to get here.”
