Genoa President Enrico Preziosi wants a restart and feels that a turning point is needed to do so: after the international break, this may be able to occur for his side in the Derby della Lanterna against Sampdoria. A perfect opportunity to redeem the two defeats against Inter and Napoli that weigh on the ranking of rossoblù, Preziosi spoke about the club and his manager, Ivan Juric, who remains in the hot seat.
"If we will see Juric on the Genoa bench for the derby? Juric is training regularly ... obviously all coaches are tied to the results of the club, the derby is an important match. If I have to criticize performance, I have to do it for the match against Inter. But it is not Juric's fault if we lose for a wrong sending off of our goalkeeper at the last minute or for an own goal. However, he knows very well that we are tied to the results as is himself; I just hope he can redeem himself and he has an important test like the Derby to do so - it is clear that this match is important for us".
