AC Milan, the "Rossoneri," will travel to Salzburg for their second UEFA Europa League match in the 2026/27 season. In an interview, Amorim stated that to cope with external pressure, his team cannot dwell on past defeats or setbacks.
In the first round of the Europa League, AC Milan lost 0-2 to Benfica after conceding goals in both halves.
In addition, in an earlier Serie A match, AC Milan took the lead thanks to a goal from Rabiot, but conceded a goal just five minutes later, resulting in a 1-1 draw against Sassuolo. After six rounds of league play, with three wins and three draws, AC Milan currently sits in fifth place in the standings.
In response to external opinions, AC Milan coach Amorim stated, "I don't read newspapers or watch television so I can focus on my work. We are in the initial stages of a new project, and of course we want to win more games and get more points. As for other things, these are all normal at a top club."
“Every project takes time, but in today’s football environment, with the media’s ubiquitous attention on football, it’s almost impossible to get enough time. Therefore, we must win the game. I’m not worried about these things. I’m focused on winning right now, and everything else that happens around the game is not my concern.”
Amorin said, "Every game is as important as the Champions League. Every detail and every game is extremely crucial and challenging. Red Bull Salzburg is technically excellent, so we must be tough enough in terms of running and physical confrontation, be fully prepared physically, and play our own style."
“The team is in good shape, and they also felt a suffocating silence after the last game. But our schedule is very tight, and there is simply no time to dwell on the past. We must focus on the next game, strive for victory, and do everything we can.”
Furthermore, Amorim added, "Camalda has been training very well, and tomorrow will be another opportunity for him. I won't reveal whether he will start, but as I said before, he will get more playing time from now on. We have many games to play, and every player needs to step up."
"Comotto's performance was also outstanding. We must understand that these players previously played in lower leagues, but now they have come to AC Milan. Here, even a draw can cause a huge uproar."
Amorim added, "We have many options, and I don't know when everyone will get their chance, but we have to rotate, and sometimes everyone needs a bit of luck."
