'They didn't give him confidence' - Brahim Diaz agent criticises Real Madrid ahead of midfielder's Milan move

Brahim Diaz's agent Pedro Gonzalez says Real Madrid failed to get the most out of the young midfielder and has backed his client to succeed on loan at AC Milan.

The 21-year-old joined Madrid in January 2019 after six years at Manchester City but has made just five La Liga starts since, making only substitute appearances in the top-flight last season.

He previously vowed to win over head coach Zinedine Zidane, but the Spaniard is now on the verge of linking up with Milan for the 2020-21 season after flying into Malpensa airport on Wednesday.
