In the meantime, Giovannian Fabbian us currently busy at the Under-21 Euros. He is one of Italy’s star men at that tournament.
However, reports the Corriere, Lazio are very much keen on entering the scene.
well, a young player with a history to win a title? inter needs that hunger that was lost at the very end of last season, a winning mentality. comparing to those veterans who had lost the hunger and physicality last season, better take him anyday
Yesyes go to Lazio
Inter believes more in mikitaryan at 36 than this kid unfortunately… if not for oaktree the average age of the squad will be 35yrs by now. It’s time to shift the cultural mindset in Italian football and start believing in younger players, the whole world is making a mockery of Italian soccer now as a retirement home when there is abundant of younger talented players across the country
we have already have this discussion since 2010’s right after the treble era, but there are not many changes we could clearly see from then
this kid has potential. give him another year or two
