The striker of the Luigi Ferraris outfit has gone on to state that he is looking to work hard in smaller teams before making his mark at top flight football.
The former Juventus starlet started his youth career at Sorrento, before he was snapped up by the Turin outfit in 2008. However, his appearances at the club were limited in the senior squad due to the high level of competition and in order to continue his
development he went on a loan stint to AC Siena in 2010, however, he saw his appearances limited at the club as well and could only score once in his four appearances in the Lega.
It was not until he was at Pescara that he finally came off age. It was the trio of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lorenzo-Insigne-c22431, Marco Verratti and Ciro Immobile that helped the Delfini in gaining promotion to the Serie A last season. He had a phenomenal season under the tutelage
of Zdenek Zeman and proved that he deserves to be at the top flight.
Immobile managed to score 28 goals in 37 appearances in the Serie B, and his performances threw him in the limelight of the potential suitors. It was Genoa who finally managed to sign the youngster in a co-ownership deal, and he is pumped up to perform at
the highest level possible.
The attacker was talking to Tuttosport and during his interview, he went on to state that he wanted to make his mark at Genoa before moving to a bigger club, and many have also questioned the wisdom of Juve. Juve were keen to add a striker to their ranks
and their failure in landing a target, has many thinking that they should have held faith in Immobile.
However, Immobile holds a different opinion and stated:
“It’s better to play for a ‘small’ team than to grow in a big one. When I was offered Genoa in January, we said yes because I am convinced that this is the right path for me to grow.”
The youngster also stated that it was a great time for youngsters to prove their worth, and he mentioned that the economic downturn gives them an opportunity to shine at the top level. Immobile has already scored for the Grifone in their Serie A match against
Cagliari.
