The Italian goalkeeper was not retained by the capital club which no longer counted on him and which preferred Lucas Chevalier who arrived from Lille OSC. A departure that he has now digested. During an interview given to the Gazzetta dello Sportthe captain of the Italian selection looked back on his debut in the jersey of Skyblues.
The 26-year-old goalkeeper sent a beautiful statement to his new club. “ In City, I feel at home, even though it hasn't been long since I moved there. They wanted me hard, they made me feel important, and now they already consider me one of their own,” he said.
Before continuing and speaking about his collaboration with Pep Guardiola: “When you listen to it, you are enchanted. I imagined it that way, but the reality is even better than I predicted. I hope to stay in Manchester for as long as possible, to have a truly unique experience. »
