Nottingham Forest midfielder Nicolas Dominguez admits he was hoping to hear from AC Milan last summer.
Dominguez joined Forest from Bologna in August.
But he told gianlucadimarzio.com: "Yes, there was talk about it [interest from Milan] and I read a bit about it.
"I even waited for the Rossoneri but nothing... I'm happy with the choice to come here.
"Life here is a bit different compared to Italy, but both my family and I are very happy here. If I have to be honest, I don't miss Italy that much. We Argentinians are used to many cultures. Having said that, however, the adaptation to football was more difficult."
