Roma starlet Niccolo Pisilli was introduced at Coverciano as Luciano Spalletti’s latest addition to Italy’s senior team.

The 20-year-old midfielder spoke to the media on Tuesday morning ahead of Italy’s next round of Nations League fixtures.

“It’s an honor to be here, a great satisfaction. The coach’s words are very pleasing and I hope to be able to transform these beautiful words into concrete facts.”

“I didn’t expect this at all, I went into this without too many expectations. Now I’ll try to learn from all my teammates, they are the best of the best.”

“My goal is to improve myself day by day and learn a little from everyone. I don’t feel like naming anyone in particular, I try to steal a little from all my teammates.”

“I want to thank De Rossi, Mourinho and Juric, thanks to them I got the opportunity to be here.”

“De Rossi and Mourinho gave me the opportunity to play, which is the most important thing.”

“I am a Roma fan, but it is still too early to say whether I will be able to spend my entire career at Roma,” he concluded, as per Tuttomercatoweb.
