Udinese, Runjiac slams Lucca: “He left without saying goodbye” | OneFootball

A few days before the kick-off of Udinese-Napoli, a match valid for the fifteenth day of the Serie A championship, the coach of the Friuli team, Kosta Runjaic, spoke at the usual pre-match press conference, where he took a jab at a current Napoli player.

Udinese, Runjaic scolds Lucca in conference: “I didn’t receive any message from him, he left without saying goodbye”

These are the statements of the current coach of the Friuli team: “Ekkellenkamp is not a winger, he is an important midfielder for us, these injuries can happen, it’s part of the football world. Currently, we don’t have both wingers, Rui Modesto has trained well in recent months and I brought him in against Genoa. It wasn’t easy because he hadn’t played for a while, some things he could have done better but it wasn’t an easy context. He gave his best, we need the right defensive attitude on the wings, we are not currently having a great contribution in the offensive phase. Rui Modesto, without going into specifics, made some mistakes in his performance, there is also Ehizibue who could play there, there is still the finishing and a few hours to decide.”

“We are happy that Okoye stays with us because it is important to guarantee him consistency, he has all the qualities to be a valuable goalkeeper, now he must be consistent. During the preparation, he suffered in terms of the work done because he knew he wouldn’t play in the first months. The African Cup would have been a great experience but staying here can help him improve here in Serie A, he is our starting goalkeeper. It is possible that Kristensen will play, but I’m not talking about the lineup. Lucca? He didn’t say goodbye to me, so we haven’t spoken, everyone must think about what is best for themselves, I wish him the best, maybe we’ll see him on the field tomorrow, we, on the other hand, must bring the right anger to the field after the performance against Genoa.”
