Samuele Ricci increasingly protagonist with the Toro shirt, now the future is all in his hands (and in his feet)
In Toro there is a certainty in midfield, and bears the name of Samuel Ricci. Injury behind, the number 28 is ready to restart after the preparation friendlies. Precisely in the last friendly against Monza, won 4-1 by the granata, at the end of the game the 2001 class declared that he was fine and that the team is ready to restart: on 4 January at 14:30 at home against Verona. Over time, Ricci has conquered Juric more and more and is now essential in the grenade chessboard.
His path
Having arrived in the middle of last season from Empoli, everyone was aware of his qualities, but few would have expected such a progressive impact. The two starters in midfield were Lukic and Mandragora, but due to the physical problems of one and the other, Ricci immediately played many matches as a starter, even though he was not fully aware of the game schemes. Its growth it was exponential, and with the departure of Mandragora (and the non-arrival of a midfielder requested by the coach), Ricci has become fundamental for Toro this season, having taken over the keys to the midfield flanked by Lukic. As he himself said, the 2022 balance is positive, and now the future passes through his feet and also the call-ups to the national team, with which he has already made his debut.
Its season
When he got hurt, Turin went into full crisis. With him on the field as owner instead, no defeat: a sentence up to now. For him 11 appearances between league and cup, with 1 assist, 2 yellow cards and many excellent performances. Al Toro is happy, and it is not obvious to have such a talented young Italian in the squad: he is to be kept close.
