“This is a big opportunity for us, one we earned thanks to the many points we put together in Serie A last season, which is also why so many of us remained in the squad,” the defender told Sky Sport Italia.
“It is a game with many dangers and the biggest difference may well be one of fitness, because Debrecen already played in the first preliminary round and are a more physical team in general.
“We had a much shorter pre-season training camp than usual. We’ve got to use our heads and work hard. We prepared for this the way we would the biggest match.”
