The new Rossoblu striker met with the media in the press room at the Unipol Domus, recounting his first weeks in Cagliari, his relationship with Coach Fabio Pisacane, his understanding with his new teammates, and his goals for the season. His journey has just begun, but he&#8217;s already feeling very positive: &#8220;I feel good, as if I&#8217;ve been here longer. It&#8217;s not even been a month, but the overall assessment is super positive, and I&#8217;m happy to have come here.&#8221;  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>WHY CAGLIARI<\/strong><br\/>\u00abCagliari wanted me strongly, I had contact with the managers and the coach and they immediately showed me respect. I think it was the best decision to come here. Of course, I talked to my father about the decision to come to Cagliari and he gave me a lot of advice, as always.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>HUNTING FOR A BREAKTHROUGH<\/strong><br\/>&#8220;It could be a combination of things; maybe I haven&#8217;t always been consistent. The important thing is to make the right moment and maintain consistency throughout the game and the season. Monza? I felt at home and considered an important player. They had a lot of faith in me, and that helped me grow. I think the time has come for consistency, and I think this is the best environment for me to grow and prove my worth.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>THE COACH<\/strong><br\/>&#8220;I spoke a lot with the coach. He&#8217;s a genuine person who&#8217;s pleasant and easy to talk to. He gives me a lot of freedom and gives me specific tasks, especially when we&#8217;re not in possession. I&#8217;m at his and the team&#8217;s disposal. He wants us to always have the ball and control the game. That was the main thing, as we did in Parma. I played a bit on the wing and a bit in the attacking midfield. I feel comfortable in that position, but obviously I play wherever the coach wants.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>WONDERFUL GROUP<\/strong><br\/>&#8220;The group is fantastic, it&#8217;s super close-knit, and we feel great together. From the first training session, I knew it was the right place. We&#8217;re very connected, and training is great fun, as well as stimulating. I already knew Fazzini and have a great relationship with him. Kevin Carlos and I met at the airport; he&#8217;s very polite and kind. As a player, I think he has incredible potential and explosive power. Personally, I have to try not to lose myself during the match, to be consistent, and to be part of the team&#8217;s game.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>TOWARDS INTER<\/strong><br\/>&#8220;We&#8217;re coming off a great win, which was very important for us. On Sunday we&#8217;ll face a very strong team and we&#8217;ll do everything we can to bring home points. I prefer to take it one game at a time. The important thing is to stay up, achieve it as quickly as possible, and then aim as high as possible. Betting and role models? I think about the pitch; I don&#8217;t have a specific role model. I try to learn from the best players to continually improve myself, but I wouldn&#8217;t single out one name above all others.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":26388,"template":"","tags":[336,1452],"news_cat":[280,278,276,274],"class_list":["post-26401","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-press-conference","tag-daniel-maldini","news_cat-interviews","news_cat-new-in","news_cat-latest-news","news_cat-first-team"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.7 -
