Matias Soule and Paulo Dybala holders together, behind Dovbyk. It is the choice of Daniel DeRossicoach of the Romewhich speaks to Sky before the match against Empoli: “We are also curious, they play the same games even if with very different characteristics. They can play together leaving Mati on the wing and Paulo more under point, today we chose to leave Dybala wider in his position and Soulé on the opposite wing, as happened in Cagliari. We will see”.
What has the Dybala affair taught the environment?
“I don’t know, he didn’t teach me anything I didn’t expect. I knew that, having taken that path, there would be big controversies and big bad feelings. I’m a coach, that’s what I have to do.”
September 1st at the Juventus Stadium, between market incomings and outgoings, how do you expect to get there?
