The agent of Poland international Nicola Zalewski praises new Roma coach Daniele De Rossi for ‘returning him to his natural position’ after the Jose Mourinho era.
The Giallorossi have gone from strength to strength since De Rossi took over and transformed their 3-5-2 tactics into a 4-3-3 formation.
Following three consecutive victories, they will host Serie A leaders Inter on Saturday evening and Zalewski’s agent is one of those glad De Rossi replaced Mourinho.
“Zalewski never wanted to leave in January, that was not true, as he has always supported Roma,” Giovanni Ferro told Numero Diez.
“De Rossi returned him to his natural position, the one he was accustomed to since he was a kid, and now we expect him to make a step up in quality.
“If he is placed closer to the opposition goal, it can only benefit him. He is fresh, quick, sparkling, so the fewer defensive obligations he has, the more he can express his qualities.”
