NAME: Roberto Piccoli
BORN IN: Bergamo, 01/27/2001
ROLE: striker
TEAM: Cagliari
Starting next season, Robert Little will wear the Cagliari jersey. His transfer was determined on the basis of a loan with an option to buy and a counter-buy in favor of the Nerazzurri. The 2001-born player arrives at the court of the new coach Davide Nicola after spending the last year with Lecce. The Bergamo player has decided to embrace the Sardinian project rather than return to the Salento club for a question of ownership, but also because it is a more advantageous deal for the Goddess.
He is a right-footed central striker capable of playing well both in a trident and in a pair with another striker. He has excellent physicality with which he is able to protect the ball in the best possible way in order to bring his teammates up and consequently put them in the ideal conditions to counter-attack. Thanks to his good timing in the penalty area, Roberto Piccoli is a real threat in the insertions behind the opposing defense, especially with his head or in splits. During his last year with Lecce, the former Atalanta player collected a whopping 32 games in the league, of which however only 12 as a starter, with 5 goals scored and as many yellow cards received for an average rating of 6.02 and a fantamedia that amounts to 6.41.
Fantasy football advice: the 23-year-old player is coming off a positive year overall in terms of personal loot, but now he must be able to unlock his great offensive potential. At Cagliari, Roberto Piccoli will almost certainly be the new starting striker, so he will have plenty of minutes at his disposal to grow further and establish himself in Serie A as a potential provincial bomber. We recommend his purchase as the 5th slot in both the 8-a-side and 10-a-side leagues.
