Hernan Crespo has been made to feel welcome by his new Milan team-mates.

The Chelsea striker will spend a season on loan in Serie A after deciding to leave London for a return to Italy.

"Since the first day, everyone has allowed me to feel happy," he told Milan Channel.

"My team-mates have welcomed me positively, as have the whole staff and the club.

"I must admit that it seems like I have always been here."

The Argentina hit-man is pleased to be playing for coach Carlo Ancelotti, who was in charge during his time at Parma.

"Ancelotti started my career at Parma," he added. "I'm really happy to have found him again.

"He hasn't changed. He's absolutely keen on having a good relationship with all the players.

"I feel good with him and having him as coach is another positive thing."
