Fernando Torres targets legendary AC Milan status

Fernando Torres has expressed an ambition to earn legendary status at AC Milan.

The Spaniard secured a two-year loan move to the Rossoneri from Chelsea last week following a goal-shy three-and-a-half year stint at Stamford Bridge.

Nevertheless, Torres hopes to rediscover his goalscoring touch to fire himself into Milan's record books alongside the modern greats.

"Every player is different, but [Marco] Van Basten, [George] Weah and [Filippo] Inzaghi defined an era," he told reporters on Tuesday.

"I want to achieve the same results as them. I am different from those players, but maybe in a few years' time, they'll have my number nine in the museum.

"I want to take advantage of this opportunity. It is a challenge that I needed. I'm really happy to be here. I want to score the goals that can take this club back up with the best around."

The 30-year-old striker will expect to make his debut when Milan travel to Parma on September 13.
