Nagy hoping Ferencvaros play in front of ‘50,000 to 60,000 fans’ vs. Milan
By: Oliver Fisher
Adam Nagy is looking forward to playing at San Siro in front of a big crowd as he leads Ferencvaros out against AC Milan.
Ferencvaros have every reason to come into this game full of confidence having won each of their three Europa League fixtures so far. Nagy has become a key part of the team already, having joined in the summer window to become the new midfield anchor.
This will not actually be the first time that the 31-year-old midfielder has played against Milan though, and it will be his second meeting with them at San Siro. Nagy has been involved in four games against the Rossoneri, all with Bologna, with one draw and three defeats.
We picked out Nagy as one of the potential key players in the game tonight, and he spoke to Sky in an interview released on the day of the game, with his words relayed by MilanNews.
“We’re playing away from home, and we know the first five to ten minutes won’t be easy, so we have to stay calm even if we only touch the ball a few times in the first few minutes, and then gradually get into the game and try to keep the ball and create as many dangers as possible,” he said.
“We’re very happy that so many of our fans are here, even if we won’t hear 5,000 fans in a stadium like this. I also hope there will be 50,000 to 60,000 fans.”
