Talking about current issues a TMW Radioduring Maracanawas the journalist and former footballer Stefano Impallomeni.
Napoli, ADL and Manna in Germany for Kvaratskhelia. However, there is a stalemate:
“What would I advise the player? For me it’s not just a question of money. Of course the difference is 3 million net, but he broke through and won immediately with Napoli, he became an idol and then it wasn’t an easy year. Now he’s sought after, he would replace Mbappé in Paris. It’s an important turning point in his career, I understand that. If you do well there then you play on a big stage and show off to maybe go to the Premier League or elsewhere”.
How do you evaluate Juventus’ moves so far?
“He’s moving very well, with a Juve that in terms of squad and game will be much more competitive. Giuntoli is doing Giuntoli. Kean to Fiorentina is a great deal for Juve too. I’m also expecting Thuram now, which means dynamic players. And then Koopmeiners, it would be a great move. Unfortunately I’m taking Chiesa out of Juve”.
Italy vs Switzerland, how many chances to advance?
“We’ll get there in the dying seconds, but there’s a Switzerland that’s superior to you now. The odds are 50-50. Switzerland is superior for several reasons, they feel stronger. But it’s not their presumption. They just think they’ve changed and that’s how it is.”
There’s talk of a three-man defence, but what team do you expect?
“The choices depend on Switzerland’s tough midfield, which has Xhaka and Freuler, very physical, aggressive and technical. So Cristante serves and Barella would go to duel.”
