Roma attacker Stephan El Shaarawy was interviewed today by Sky Sport. These are his words:
Your period at Roma: a rebirth?
I came here with the goal of doing well and I think I have done so, in part. I feel I am growing as a player and my goal is also to better impose myself both at the Italian and European level.
What did Milan mean to you?
The crowning of a dream, as a supporter, it was my goal. In Rossonero, I have achieved the most significant goals of my career so, for me, it will be a special match.
Di Francesco said that you are the ideal player for his style of play, what do you think?
I am very happy, for me, it is a very advantageous style of play, including the role the wingers play. We must listen to the Mister because he is a very capable guy, he has a lot of charisma.
How does Dzeko always score?
He is a complete player who has always scored wherever he played. He is of the utmost importance to us.
Can Florenzi also be considered to play as a right winger?
He can play in any role for any team. He can adapt and do well, we hope he can do well in Milano should be play on the right wing.
What would it represent for you to play in Russia?
It’s my primary objective because I have never gone to the World Cup, it is a huge dream I hope comes true. It will be important to do well this season with Roma and then to concentrate on the national team.
