Kyle Walker believes that his new Milan teammate Rafael Leao has the ability to become one of the best footballers on the planet, and feels that this could \u2018only be the beginning\u2019 for Theo Hernandez, who he feels is at the beginning of the peak years of his career.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The England international, who joined the Rossoneri from Manchester City on Friday, gave his first press conference on Monday afternoon, alongside club advisor Zlatan Ibrahimovic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Walker addressed a number of topics during his chat with the press, including Milan\u2019s recent victory over Parma, but also answered questions about some of his new teammates.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Walker: \u2018It\u2019s up to Leao to become one of the best in the world\u2019<\/h2>\n

The 34-year-old was full of compliments, lent some advice to Leao and told the press which of his former Man City teammates he reminds him of.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cRafa speaks for himself. I remember watching a lot of his games, he reminds me of Bernardo Silva. It\u2019s up to Rafa now to try and become one of the best in the world. ,\u201d Walker said, reported via TMW.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis team has loads of quality, everyone wants to play, but a good chunk of it comes from your mentality. You can\u2019t afford to cool down just because you\u2019re good, you have to have continuity and be consistent.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Theo Hernandez is 26. \u2018I went to City when I was 27\u2019<\/h2>\n

Walker also feels that, given his age, Theo Hernandez is only at the beginning of his best years as a player. Walker\u2019s move to Man City seven-and-a-half years ago illustrates that point.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI played against Theo with the national team. He\u2019s a top player, his statistics speak for themselves. This could be just the beginning, he\u2019s 26 years old. I went to City when I was 27.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI think this is the most important period for a defender, the peak of his career because he has that knowledge in both the attacking and defensive phases. I\u2019m here if he needs advice, but I hope to compliment Theo. The important thing is the team, not the individuals.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n
