Castillejo has found form at AC Milan and hopes for lengthy stay

Samu Castillejo thinks he has finally found his feet at Milan and hopes to stay at the club for a long time.

Milan signed Castillejo in August 2018 in a deal worth a reported €18 million (£16m/$20m) but he struggled to establish himself initially, starting just eight Serie A games in his first season at San Siro.

The 25-year-old was linked with a move away in the previous transfer window, with Atletico Madrid and Espanyol said to have been interested.

However, Castillejo stayed put and started 11 games in a row prior to the season being put on hold due to the coronavirus pandemic, contributing four assists and a goal in that run.
