“The goal is to get back in, and I’ll make it.”
The 27-year-old also discussed his pride at renewing with the Blucerchiati until 2017.
“I’m proud to have signed this contract, especially in this very challenging period for me. I thank the club, I’m sorry I can’t get back on the pitch immediately, I miss it.
“I need two weeks, and then I’ll have to get back into top condition.”
