“We must fight all the time. We’ll be facing a strong team with some exciting players. They are a solid team and we must be focused,” Prandelli said at a press conference.

“We must fight all the time. We’ll be facing a strong team with some exciting players. They are a solid team and we must be focused,” Prandelli said at a press conference.

“We must play a great game, making the most of our strengths. We must put in the same performances of the last two away games against Torino and Sampdoria, hoping to be luckier.

“[Luca] Gotti has a great experience. He can read the games well. Udinese are a very organised team.”

Will Franck Ribery return to action?

“He trained with the team once this week, and he did it well. We have one more session left, we’ll see.

“[Christian] Kouame got injured, I am sorry for him because he was improving, but we have a great medical staff and I hope he will return to action in two weeks.”

Maurizio Sarri has been linked with the Fiorentina job, although both the coach’s agent and the club’s directors denied a meeting with the former Juventus tactician.

“I will never create problems for the club,” said Prandelli.

“It’s premature to talk about the future, but I am sure I’ll be in sync with the directors.

“I feel a great responsibility. That’s the most challenging experience I’ve ever faced. I want to find new energies and be propositive.

“The club are planning the future, we are professionals, and we can only think about the pitch.”
