New Sampdoria signing Rafael believes there are similarities between Marco Giampaolo and his old Napoli Coach Maurizio Sarri.
The Blucerchiati have signed the goalkeeper, who spent five years with the Partenopei, on a free transfer.
And speaking in his first interview since his move, the shot-stopper highlighted the meticulous attention to detail used by the now Chelsea boss.
“Sarri’s football is beautiful, just like Giampaolo’s,” Rafael commented.

“Sarri’s football is beautiful, just like Giampaolo’s,” Rafael commented.
“With their philosophies, you actively participate in the game through the building phase.
“Even when the ball is in the opposition’s penalty area, you need to know where to be in order to help the next attack.”
The Brazilian is looking forward to playing in Samp’s Derby della Lanterna matches with Genoa this season.
“I have played against Genoa twice, with Napoli, and I’ve always won.
“I know the type of game it is and I am looking forward to it.”
