He told ABTalks: "I'm fine, life is good, I treat myself well. Obviously I stopped playing football eight months ago, now I have a different life, I accepted to stop playing football which was a difficult thing because of my ego, because of that what I think about myself.
"I think I'm the best, I'm still the best, I could go on... but I chose to stop. Why? I want a good life for my family. I wanted to be able to do things with my children, if I had continued, I couldn't do things with my kids because I had knee problems. So I accepted it, I came to a point where I said 'okay, let it go and start a new chapter in your life'."
On his return to Milan, he added: "Cardinale made me an offer that I couldn't refuse. I started working with Milan and I've been at Milan for three or four months and it's going well, I must say."
