Cremonese shoring up the defense
U.S. Cremonese has announced that it has acquired the right to the sports performance of Emanuel Aiwu permanently from Rapid Vienna.
Born in Innsbruck (Austria) on Dec. 25, 2000, a defender, Aiwu grew up in Admira Wacker, a team with which he played 81 games in the Austrian top flight. In 2021/22 he moved to Rapid Vienna where he collected 23 games in the Austrian Bundesliga, scoring 2 goals. Aiwu also boasts 6 appearances in the Europa League and 2 in the Conference League. A staple of the Austrian youth national teams, he took the field 13 times with the Under 21 team, going 2 times in goal.
The Austrian defender, but of Nigerian descent, will be able to come in very handy for coach Massimiliano Alvini.
