AC Milan's youth team captain Davide Pacifico has admitted that he has learned a lot from training in pre-season with the first-team squad.

Pacifico said that being able to speak to players such as Antonio Nocerino and being coached by Filippo Inzaghi will ensure that the Under-19s will succeed.

"Working with the first team is magnificent, you are working with real players and real football, it is a great experience," he told the club's official website.

"The player I bonded the most with was Nocerino, he helped me a lot. Having Inzaghi as a coach is a real help because he passes on so much to us.

"He really does teach us a lot and off the pitch as well - how we must behave and act away from football."

Primavera reached the semi-finals of the national league last season.
