Since their arrival in the capital, Robinio Vaz and Lorenzo Venturino have been constantly called upon by Gian Piero Gasperini.
For the Grugliasco-born coach, age doesn’t matter: if you’re good, you play, and only by playing can you improve. He would have liked to play in the Europa League playoffs to get more games.
The Giallorossi coach has no doubts about their potential. “Venturino scored a couple of goals for Genoa last year, but this year he hasn’t played much. He’s arrived in a position where we were lacking, and I think he can bring us satisfaction over time. Vaz is weighed down by the investment made. I’m trying to understand how useful he can be in the short term; he will certainly be in the future,” said the coach, speaking of the two players.
Vaz and Venturino are trying to get to grips with their new teammates. And the ongoing emergency facing Roma, especially in attack with Dybala, El Shaarawy, Dovbyk, Ferguson, and Soulé sidelined, must provide the young players with an opportunity to assert themselves.
Daniele Ghilardi teaches us that time brings answers, but against Cremonese, the 2007-born player and the former Genoa player are ready to step up and prove their worth.
Furthermore, Venturino won’t even have a European showcase, so he’ll have to take advantage of every opportunity he gets in the league to earn his keep.
