Original Title: Kyle Walker: “Gimenez? I think he’s very similar to Julian Alvarez in his style of play. He’s not a pure number nine striker, but he has the technical ability to create magic at any moment. He’s willing to run for the team and put himself on the line for the good of the team.”

On Gimenez: “First of all, I’ll start with the person, a fantastic person: very kind, he integrated and mixed with everyone. As a player: obviously with Feyenoord he was on fire and scored many goals. When he arrived at Milan, a club that meant a lot to him, from my personal point of view he worked too hard and things didn’t come naturally to him as they did with Feyenoord. As we can see this year, because I follow him closely, he started well, the team started well and they are where they wanted to be. He deserves it because he worked hard. He was in the gym, doing extra work at the training ground. If he continues to do what he is doing and work hard on and off the pitch, I am sure we will see the Gimenez who was at Feyenoord. There is no doubt about it.”

Walker’s comparison of Gimenez:

“I wouldn’t say I can identify him with any particular player. I think he’s very similar to Julian Alvarez in his style of play. He’s not a pure number nine striker, but he has the technical ability to create magic at any moment. He’s a willing runner. He’s willing to run for the team and put himself on the line for the good of the team. I think that’s very important in a team, because a lot of strikers don’t really touch the ball, they score a goal, run away and celebrate.”
