Mathieu Flamini wants to win something with Milan, despite admitting he is likely to have offers to leave.

Midfielder expects to have offers to leave in the summer

Mathieu Flamini admits he will have options to leave AC Milan in the summer, but has reiterated that he wants to stay with the Serie A club. The French midfielder quit Arsenal for Milan in 2008, but he has struggled to hold down a starting berth under coach Leonardo this season. He has repeatedly been linked with a move back to the Premier League and was a target for Manchester City during the January transfer window. City boss Roberto Mancini is reportedly weighing up a fresh approach for the 26-year-old in the summer as he looks to fine-tune his squad. However, while Flamini is aware there will be opportunities to move on from Milan, he remains determined to be a success at the San Siro.

Dream

"It was a dream to come here," Flamini told Gazzetta dello Sport. "I had other possibilities when I left Arsenal, and I would also have them now, but my objective is to stay here and win something. "Hopefully the Scudetto and fast." Flamini also suggested that he is at a loss to explain why he does not figure prominently in Leonardo's plans for Milan. He added: "You should ask the coach. I have always worked hard and the new system should favour a player like me. "At Arsenal we also played with two midfielders in front of the defence, Fabregas and I. It's the role I prefer."
