AC Milan coach Stefano Pioli says he won't rush the introduction of Chelsea loan signing Fikayo Tomori.

Milan meet Inter Milan in the Coppa Italia on Tuesday night.

“Tomori is a very intelligent and curious lad, he comes from a different football, the language is a barrier, my English is good but not great, but he pays attention and many of his teammates speak good English," Pioli told Milan TV.

“He has interesting qualities and characteristics but he's only trained twice with us and will take a bit longer for him to settle in completely."

He added: "We don't have much time and play a lot, so communication needs to be immediate. I made my considerations and shared them with the team the morning after."
