Today’s edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport proposes an interview with the former striker Fernando Llorentein view of the Champions League match that awaits Juventus on the pitch of the Germans Leipzig.
Says the former Spanish striker: “Giuntoli was my manager at Napoli, he’s a guarantee. They spent a lot because they want to triumph again. For the Scudetto, Inter remains the strongest but Juve is there. And watch out for Napoli, Conte is a phenomenon” . In the Champions League, however, the music may be different: “More open football is played, whoever breaks the deadlock has a better chance of winning.” Focus on Vlahovic: “He’s confident, with the first scoring opportunity he can direct the evening. My focus is on him, after the double against Genoa he won’t stop. He’s someone who scores 30 goals a season but he has to concentrate on his work, the goals are a consequence” .
Between him and Sesko, who does Llorente prefer? “I still take Dusan. If he improves he has everything to be one of the top number nines in the world.” And between the two terrible 2005s Yildiz and Nusa? Says the Spaniard: “Yildiz seems special.” What is Giuntoli’s shot that intrigues Llorente the most? “Conceicao. Technique, dribbling, bursts…”. Then he also says, in his opinion, the possible decisive men on both sides: “Xavi Simons and Koopmeiners can change everything with one shot and one assist”.
