With Milik’s injury giving him a massive opportunity, it is now the most decisive period of time for Manolo Gabbiadini. While Napoli fans await his response on the pitch, kisskiss Napoli reports his statements to Lega Serie A:
‘Pressure? I can handle it. If I couldn’t, I wouldn’t be playing for Napoli. I train with a clear head, and then I try to perform the best I can during matches. Obviously I’m upset about Milik’s injury, so I want to take this moment and wish him and Montolivo the best. In terms of games played and goals scored, the stats speak in my favour. Even though I haven’t played much until now, I’m happy to be part of a team like Napoli. When Higuain got injured last season, fans would come up to me in public, making me feel far too important. That was a strange time for me, but my teammates helped me deal with it on the pitch’.
A few comments on his career: ‘Ferrara always gave me playing time for the U21’s, if it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t be here. Not to mention Mihajlovic: He will be upfront with you, both with the good and the bad. Having a relationship with such a coach allows me to express my full potential’.
On his early days: ‘I worked at an automobile repair shop for a year and a half. The day after my debut with Parma I still went to work, cars are my passion’.
