From the Wind3 Media Center of the Rocco B. Commisso Viola Park, the words of Fiorentina's Sporting Director, Daniele Pradè, to the press.
ATHENS - “The Conference League final was the biggest disappointment. We thought we could win it, but that wasn't the case. And so we decided to revolutionize the group, also to avoid leaving any consequences."
GONZALEZ - “The America's Cup final had a huge impact on Nico's new ambitions. After winning the America's Cup he felt he wanted a change and we satisfied him."
JUVENTUS - “We don't have a direct line with the Juventus club. Juventus is a club like any other. Market dynamics then lead you to certain situations"
GUDMUNSON - “We protected ourselves in every way with our lawyers and contractually. It was an operation that began in January last year. The operations in football are very strange. For example, we wanted to keep Amrabat, then the vicissitudes of football change the situations."
BATURINA - “We liked it, but the passage of the Champions League led his Club to make other choices”.
VICE KEAN - “There are many of us up front, so at this moment we are covered in the role, with Koume and Beltran”.
BELTRAN - “I am convinced that this year can give us a lot”.
DEFENSE - “Initially we were looking for an extra defender, then we made other choices. Numerically we are ok. For Valentini there were no conditions to take him immediately."
CATALDI - “We needed this sense of leadership of his. I've known him since he was a child."
NUMBERS - “I don't have precise numbers. We are in line with last season's salaries. However, you must add the rights and obligations for next year. We made a market intelligently.
KAYODE - “We are betting a lot on Kaya. There is an excellent relationship between us and his agent. The President would never have had the courage to sell him in this market session."
MANGALA - “Director Goretti strongly wanted it. Initially there was no openness to the sale. We tried anyway, but Lyon preferred to sell him to Everton."
TESSMAN - “In the end we preferred Richardson.
AMBITION - “Find me a club that has no ambition. Every club has ambition. Our ambition is to always play to win. The ultimate goal is to get as high as possible”
FRANCHI - "Due to the work in progress, unfortunately there is no fort situation and this makes me a little anxious."
MARTINELLI - “We thought a lot. The boy wanted to play, but we decided to keep him alongside Terracciano and De Gea. Sending him out on loan now would have been a mistake, and so we talked about it with Tommaso and his agent."
DEFENSIVE LEADER - “We have decided to strengthen ourselves in another role with Robin Gosens, and to focus on the growth of Comuzzo, Moreno and Valentini”.
RENEWAL OF KOUAME AND COMUZZO - "We are talking about it. We are close to both of them."
HUMMELS - "We thought about it, but he wasn't ready to make the decision at that moment in the market."
SUTALO - “Not transferable for the Ajax coach”.
