The head coach of London’s Arsenal team, Mikel Arteta, expresses confidence in defender Riccardo Kalafiori's success despite the complicated situation in his first season in England. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The player was unable to participate in many matches due to constant injuries and only played 29 times throughout the entire season. According to Arteta, Kalafiori is expected to have a great season and is mentally prepared.
The coach emphasized that one of the main tasks of the team is to keep the players fully fit. Riccardo suffered two serious injuries while on national team duty, such situations occur in football.
He brings great benefits to the team with his qualities, and it is important for him to be healthy. This was not achieved last season, but there is hope that the situation will improve in the new season.
It is worth noting that Riccardo Kalafiori was transferred from Bologna to Arsenal for 45 million euros last July.
