“We want to keep him, he is our point of strength. We hope to see him back in the field with all his powers. He played an exemplary role last season.”

Real Madrid Target De Sciglio Not for Sale

“Mattia did well for Italy this week in a system that he’s not accustomed to, impressing out wide in a 3-5-2. He is versatile and can play any role, left or right, while he even played centre-back once.”
“If we didn’t have Diego Lopez, we’d put him in goal too!”

“He's had nothing but a positive effect and that is testament to his own ability and character as a person. We're very pleased.”
