“I pushed so hard to make my wish come true: I really wanted to become a Roma player and finally now it is a reality – these are the first words released by the new Giallorossi player. Roma impressed me right away, I believe a lot in the Club’s project and plans and I wanted to be part of it. I come here to learn and to improve, but also to show what I am capable of doing. The Roma fans are the best I have ever seen and I can’t wait to play for them.”
