Roma's goal in the new season is to qualify for the Champions League?
This is one of the goals of this season. We were only 1 point away from last season and we wanted to enter the Champions League. Overall, we hope to do better in the European war. Everyone is passionate now.
Gasperini became the head coach of Roma, and you have worked with Genoa in the past
He is my first (adult team) coach and he gave me the opportunity to debut in Serie A. He is a master in the coaching world, and he teaches you a lot on and off the court, knowing how to help players improve and let them express themselves in the best way. He is experienced and I think he can help us a lot. The preparations for summer training are very tense.
What is the difference between Gasperini and Ranieri?
Gasperini demands the intensity and vitality of the game. He wants to take the initiative to attack and push forward actively. He asks to insert more from the wing. We are doing what he asked, hoping to do better than last season. After taking office, Gasperini announced that he would arrange the captain's candidates according to the number of times he played in Rome. You are the player who plays the most for Rome. It is a great pride, great satisfaction and great responsibility to wear the captain's armband. Not only was the captain's armband worn during weekend games, I also tried to try to be a good role model for every teammate at other times of the week. Rome jerseys are important and must be respected forever.
Who is the key figure in leading the Rome Club?
Gasperini, Ranieri, and Masala are all very experienced people who know football very well. And two of them are already very familiar with Rome. Ranieri is a symbol of how to embody the values of the club Rome.
Italian national team coach Gattuso visited the Rome club before. What did you talk about? Will you return to the national team?
We said hello to each other and I was happy to see him again, when he played with him in his last season in Milan. He is a coach who can bring great energy and motivation to the Italian national team. national team? For me, last year's European Cup was the last competition. The national team jersey is very important, but now you know, everything needs to be considered first and foremost, I want to get good results in the club.
Finally, please talk about the championship situation in the new season of Serie A
Naples and Inter Milan are the most powerful and organized teams. We will want to make progress and do better, and it is important to have a good start, rather than falling behind our competitors from the beginning like we did last season.
