Statements by Technical Director Durand: “Prada and Chinello are the two “babies” on the roster and will represent the second dribble-opposite diagonal. Together they won the last under 17 championship, they are two guys who love to work and will surely know how to take advantage of this great opportunity to continue their growth path. Prada is a mentally very solid player with excellent technical characteristics, Chinello is a pure striker and we will try to pursue a technical path with him both from place 2 and from place 4. We expect them to learn from the more experienced guys and therefore make a further leap of quality to become Serie A players in the future”.
