“If Preziosi wanted to give me a present I’d ask him for another forward,” Gasperini said at a Press conference. “In defence and midfield we are fine in terms of numbers.”

Genoa beat their Primavera team 9-0 in a friendly this evening.

“It as a good workout which saw more or less everything come together,” the Coach reacted. “I saw a good dynamic to our play and quality.”
