Kalulu invites Tomori to join him at Juventus: ‘It went well for me’ | OneFootball

Pierre Kalulu laughs when asked if he would advise his former Milan teammate Fikayo Tomori to join him at Juventus. ‘It went well for me.’

The pair were teammates at San Siro, but faced off as opponents this evening at the Allianz Juventus Stadium in Turin when the Bianconeri emerged 2-0 winners with goals from Samuel Mbangula and Tim Weah.

Inevitably, Kalulu was asked if it was particularly satisfying to beat his parent club after they had sent him out on loan to Juve in the summer.

“I try to be as professional as possible in these situations and not think about my old club, but it is always pleasing to win,” said the defender in his press conference.

“It does have another flavour to it and these are three points we had been waiting for a long time.”

Kalulu knows Juventus targeting Tomori too

There are multiple reports that Juventus want to bring in another defender from Milan during the January transfer window.

They are prepared to make a formal offer for Tomori, on loan with obligation to buy at the end of the season for €25m.

Considering he already revitalised his career in Turin, would Kalulu advise the England international follow in his footsteps?

“I’ve been in Italy for four years, so I know that you like a lot of noise during the transfer window,” he laughed.

“I have learned to only talk about things when the contracts are signed. As for the move to Juventus, personally, it went well for me.”
