“I think they have a good relationship, including Rodrygo. I am happy that we have taken a step forward in what we want to do and what we want to be. We have to work and we have the resources to do well.”

Continuing his sharing, the Italian coach also added about Aurelien Tchouameni’s performance:

“He showed all his qualities, Aurelien is a great defender. He is very young and gradually he will learn to play more effectively. At the moment, he is an irreplaceable player for the team.”
