Klaas Jan Huntelaar says he is ready to deliver after securing a dream move to AC Milan.

After becoming surplus to requirements at Real Madrid, the Holland striker had attracted interest from sides including Stuttgart and Tottenham before heading to the San Siro.

And, as the club has a long tradition of successful Dutch players including Marco van Basten, Ruud Gullit and Frank Rijkaard, Huntelaar is thrilled to have been given the chance to follow in their footsteps.

"Milan - the club and the city - is a very special place for us Dutch," he said.

"Milan should have a great season. I'm really happy to be here.

"I know the football and the training in Italy are different to Spain, but I'm ready. I want both to start the training and to start the adventure itself."

Huntelaar will make his first appearance for Milan against Juventus in the Trofeo Berlusconi on 17th August.
