Alessandro Barisonagent of Caleb Okolispoke live on the frequencies of Sports Radio also to talk about the call of his client to the national team by Luciano Spalletti. “We experienced the call with joy, enthusiasm: it’s a dream that everyone would like since they were children and I dreamed it for him too”.
How did he communicate this to her?
“The day they called him he contacted me, he said ‘now it’s up to me to prove my worth’. They contacted him the night before by the technical staff, then he called me and told me he would go to the Nations League camp. An immense joy: it has always been his dream together with the Premier League. He is 22 years old and it is the most beautiful thing”.
How did the Leicester City opportunity arise?
“There were several Italian clubs that were looking for him, even in France and the Bundesliga. Then Leicester called and told me he dreamed of the Premier League and in 4-5 days we closed everything. He has always dreamed of the Premier League since he was fifteen, he arrived prematurely together with the national team. Fulfilling them so young can make him really happy”.
Loans in B were the key to his career
“The loans were clearly winning choices for Caleb, the best choice. I advise all my boys to play, always, not to stay in teams with a name but on the bench.”
