Alessandro Deiola extols Claudio Ranieri and swears eternal love to Cagliari

During an intervention to the microphones of "Radio TV Serie A", Cagliari captain Alessandro Deiola, among the various topics discussed, dwelt on the end of the season that awaits the islanders and on the importance of coach Claudio Ranieri in raising the technical level of the squad. In addition, the 1995-born midfielder spoke candidly about his relationship with the city of Cagliari and his future.

"We have recovered from the last game and are ready for the direct clash that will see us engaged next Sunday against Empoli. With Napoli we gave an important response; we were coming from a period that was not easy and being able to overcome these moments è always difficult, but the strength of the group è this. It isn’t è the first time that we draw in the final minutes and this è is a symptom of the fact that we are a team that never gives up and never stops believing" debuted the Rossobl&ugrave midfielder;.

"When è arrived, last year, Ranieri did not need to tell us much, his figure spoke for itself. He gave us a glimmer of serenity and lightheartedness that was lacking at that time, è he managed to recompose a united group creating something unique between us and him. We have followed him and will continue to follow him because we know that he will lead us to the achievement of our goals" continued the Rossobl&ugrave captain about his current coach.

"I get chills talking about my land. To be captain and represent my island è something unique, I feel three times more responsible than anyone else who wears this jersey because è I know I embody the values of a land and a people extremely attached to these colors. Our people are good or bad depending on how Cagliari plays, we can influence their daily life and this aspect I try to convey to all my teammates. It's a jersey I have sewn on my skin, I dreamed of it as a child and I managed to fulfill this goal and I would like to close my dream here. I can not even imagine choices that would take me away from Cagliari, è something too deep to be able to tell" added the native of San Gavino Monreale.

In conclusion, Alessandro Deiola è returned to the delicate post-match after the knockout with Lazio, where coach Claudio Ranieri had informed them of his intention to resign: "The talk about Ranieri's hypothetical departure gave us a jolt. It was not the time to drift apart, but to remain even more united. Salvation è is an important goal and we archived our season from Udine. From there we restarted and I think the change of gear was seen. We have a month of direct confrontations ahead of us where we play for our lives. We have to be even stronger in order to believe in salvation".
