 “I've seen Leonardo grow over these five years, both as a player and person. It's been a real pleasure.

"It will be a joy to see how he helps bring through the youngsters.

"The contract renewal falls in line with our blueprint. We're proud of our group of Italian players.

"We've spent five years alongside each other and we now look forward to the next five years that lie ahead.

“Leo is right when he says that our first true opponent in Serie A will be ourselves. Now we’re all on the same level.”
