“I am thrilled to come to Italy – he said – I can’t wait to get to know my new teammates. I am extremely motivated by this new challenge. One of my favourite players is Sartoretti, so I’m even happier. Obviously I love Italian food and how welcoming the poeple are. I can’t wait to give my best for those fans, I’ve seen on my computer they are great”.
