The Napoli head coach has gone on to state his impressions of the former Pescara attacker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lorenzo-Insigne-c22431, and remarked on the immense potential he has at his feet.
Many have raved on about Lorenzo Insigne and the impact he has had on Italian football in the past season. He has come up through the youth academy of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 and to gain exposure and hone his talents, he was loaned out to various clubs.
His first loan stint was for Foggia, where he impressed enough to be picked up by Zdenek Zeman, who was at Pescara at the time. Zeman’s style of football complemented the way Insigne played, and that was one of the main reason of the confidence he developed
in his skills. He went on to score 18 goals for the Delfini last summer, which saw him being given the award of the Player of the Season.
Considering the competition Insigne had within Pescara, the achievement is of great significance. Ciro Immobile scored 21 goals, and Marco Verratti was highly influential in their promotion as well.
After having such an impressive season in the Serie B and assisting them in their goal of achieving promotion into the Serie A, Insigne was called back by the Partenopei outfit for him to prove his worth in the Azzurri colours.
The departure of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ezequiel-Lavezzi-c13073 from the squad has seen a weight of expectations placed on the shoulders of Insigne, and Mazzarri has been impressed with the temperament of the youngster. The Vesuviani outfit’s head coach has gone on to state that Insigne
is a modern footballer, who works hard and has a good range of skills as well.
He was being interviewed by Corriere dello Sport and he was quoted to have said:
“It is true that he is making very fast progress, but let’s not forget he is making the transition from Serie B to A and representing his hometown club, which will bring emotions and added pressure. I honestly do not know if Insigne will become as good or
have as much success as Ezequiel Lavezzi, but he is a very mature young man who handles the pressure very well.”
Insigne’s promise has seen him being selected for the Italian national team and he debuted for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Malta-c2952.
