Tomori was speaking to Sky Sports in an interview ahead of the Three Lions' Qatar 2022 World Cup qualifier. He said his time at Chelsea was very difficult because of a lack of playing time.
He also spoke about his time in the Serie A with AC Milan and appreciated the opportunity that is being given to him by the Italian club.
Since I have been to Milan, I haven't thought about it. It was a difficult time, every footballer wants to play, and every footballer wants to show themselves on the pitch. When you are not able to do that it is difficult and being able to overcome and forget about that is part of the reason why it is now going so well.
