Kevin Bonifazi, defender of Leccegave an interview to the local broadcaster South antenna: “I know Serie A well, I’ve played in many championships and everything can be turned upside down in a moment. Two victories or two defeats are enough… Never feel safe or doomed.”
In Empoli, however, you gave yourself a good boost.
“The victory came at an important moment, looking at the calendar. It gave us confidence to face the other matches with a different spirit. We already deserved to win against Genoa.”
Giampaolo has rediscovered Helgason.
“I respect him a lot, I like both the athlete and the person. I talk to him, I try to give him that little something extra that he lacks. Before the last match (in which he played as a starter, ed.) I spoke to him and he told me said that he hoped to see me join too. It went well for both of us. I see him every day and he has crystal clear quality: in the last few weeks I have also noticed his desire for revenge, to say that he was there too.”
We saw her return to the field too.
“I am the first to be surprised by my approach to Empoli: I know how much I work but I come from a long and tiring, at times heartbreaking, rehabilitation process. I entered with the right mentality, I saw that the ball was starting to get hot and I wanted to bring serenity, lower a I always feel ready to be a starter.”
What Lecce are you getting to know?
“I found a maturing team, which wants to continue to improve. And it’s not just for the players, but also the environment around them. As the club is, gradual interventions are needed to avoid going belly up. The greatest merit behind President Sticchi Damiani, perhaps, is the person”.
