“We’ll do everything we can to play with heart. We will give 200 per cent to get a result,” said the goalkeeper in his Press conference.

“It’s a special match, as my family is Italian, my father is from Sicily and came to Belgium as a two-year-old to join his Dad, who was working there.

“It is a particular time for me, as it’s my return to big games after almost quitting football. I had a very serious injury, so now having the chance to play in a wonderful club like Olympiakos with such great fans, I will give my all to win the game for them and also for me.”
