Rossoneri boss Silvio Berlusconi recently voiced his admiration for the young striker, and the 21-year-old feels flattered that he is held in high esteem at San Siro.
"I enjoyed his comments and I felt honoured. Could I join Milan? Never say never... I see myself playing for Roma next season, though," the Italy international told La Gazzetta dello Sport.
Destro then went on to discuss the Giallorossi's ambitions in Serie A this season, and also took the time to praise club skipper Francesco Totti.
"I believe that we can still reach a Champions League spot. We have to make sure that we always give everything.
"Totti is one of the best players I have ever played with. I believe that he can still play at the highest level for two to three more years."
Destro has netted seven goals in 19 appearances for Roma this term.

Florentino Perez refused to condemn Iker Casillas being dropped by Jose Mourinho as a major reason for the coach's imminent departure: "Regarding the [controversial] decisions he made, like benching Iker - he is our coach and he is the one who decides."
He also believes that Real Madrid have undoubtedly progressed under the former (and soon-to-be-returning?) Chelsea boss: "Everything is relative. From where we have come, we have taken a big step but we were lacking a little extra."

Even Florentino Perez isn't trying to pretend that Jose Mourinho's fallout with Iker Casillas and the subsequent anti-Mourinho vibe around the Bernabeu that it has created has not played a part in the Portuguese's exit.
He added: "I would have liked Mou to stay, but a person has a limit and the level of pressure has increased so much..."

Florentino Perez is being unsurprisingly amicable with this whole thing, but there are stings and barbs for Jose Mourinho buried in some of his words, such as: "Achievements this season haven't been sufficient for demands of a club such as Real Madrid, or a coach like Mourinho."
7:15 PM BST
More from Real Madrid club president Florentino Perez regarding Jose Mourinho's departure: "We've come to this decision just now although its something thats been back of our mind for some time. We have no pre-contract signed with any manager. This is something we have to look at over the coming days
"The time is right to go our seperate ways and once again I would like to thank Jose Mourinho for all his hard work."
