AC Milan defender Philippe Mexes is ready to shine at San Siro as he embraces a new adventure with the Serie A champions following his summer move from Roma.
The 29-year-old was unveiled by the club as preseason training got underway at the Milanello training center on Tuesday.
And his first aim is to honor Milan's shirt by trying to match the achievements from last term.
"I am proud to wear this shirt and I want to honor it by showing what I can do," he told Il Corriere dello Sport.
"I am very proud and I want to thank my teammates. I am very happy with this Milan shirt and I want to show I can match my new colleagues after they won the Scudetto last year."
Mexes joined Milan in a free deal in June after his contract in Rome expired.
The Toulouse-born defender joined Roma in 2004 from Auxerre.
