AC Milan director Paolo Maldini says they want to keep hold of his son Daniel.

Milan striker Daniel Maldini has been gradually seeing first team action with the champions.

Asked if it is difficult to manage his son, Paolo said: "No, because he's a very good boy who knows how to stay in his place. He is appreciated for what he is.

"If you are not suitable for that type of level your teammates recognise it immediately. This does not happen for Daniel.

"Then it is clear that he must grow but his autonomy of thought and life is clear within the group."
