…DE ZERBI

I have had an excellent relationship with De Zerbi since I was a footballer after the matches and he was taking his first steps as a coach. He has brilliant ideas and is a different coach. They also have excellent players and have acquired many good ones. I expect a complicated and difficult match.

…HOME ADVANTAGE

The union of the two things will be important. I think that for any footballer it is very nice to play here, but I think that they too are used to playing in full stadiums in the Premier League, but I think that here the heat will be a little higher.

…BRIGHTON

It's not easy to make a comparison. They are certainly an emerging club, they don't have a decade-long history. I believe that Roberto is giving something recognizable in the world, a brand that he carries with him. Bologna is fourth from us and Roberto has brought something similar to Sassuolo. I think it's similar, but it can only be repeated if you have a coach with great ideas or a club that can buy young players. Three or four? I won't tell you.

Roberto De Zerbi will held the press conference before the match.
