Algerian midfielder Houssem Aouar spoke after his official debut with Roma.

Aouar – one of the capital club’s signings of the summer – discussed his key takeaways from last night’s draw with Salernitana.

“The match against Salernitana was very difficult for us, including for me because Italian football is new to me.”

“I hope to do better for the team in the future, but we deserved to win. We have to learn to defend ourselves better, but I’m confident for the season that has just begun.”

“I can play in all positions. I can play as a midfielder, as a striker, whatever is needed of me – I’ll do it.”
