Castro’s report cards: Bologna has found its striker, a ‘mini Lautaro’

Zirkzee’s departure from Bologna is becoming less and less burdensome. For information ask Santiago Castroamong the absolute protagonists of the entire Serie A at the start of the season. Another goal in last night’s advance against Atalanta, which however was not enough for the Italian team from Bologna to continue their success against Monza.

Most publications reward the attacker with a nice 7.5 on his report card. Below is the opinion of one of these, i.e. Corriere dello Sport: “In the first half he plays for his teammates: he phrases, defends possession of the ball, plays with Djimsiti, and finds a Zirkzee-like play that exalts the home crowd In the second half he also adjusted his aim and scored a splendid goal from outside the area.”

TMW, on the other hand, turns on 7 like La Gazzetta dello Sport. In his opinion, however, he highlights the similarity with another striker from the top flight: “Movements of a thoroughbred striker, he stresses Djimsiti in a very physical duel. The first opportunity fails, not the second. Little Lautaros grow up.” It is up to Castro to demonstrate on the field with other tests to deserve a similar comparison.
