Maldini: in La Spezia because I am looking for continuity and stimuli

(ANSA) – LA SPEZIA, 09 AUG – “Leaving home is complicated but I needed to play, to have new stimuli”. Daniel Maldini said it on the day of his presentation at La Spezia, in the stadium where he has so far scored his only two goals as a professional. At the peak he scored in Spezia-Milan 1-2 last season and then a few days ago on his debut with the Ligurians: 5-1 at Como in the Italian Cup. “It brings me luck! The audience is warm, I really like the atmosphere. I chose the Spezia also to have more minutes and continuity,” said Paolo’s twenty-year-old son.

Next to him there are two other new faces, Albin Ekdal and Mattia Caldara. Having arrived for weeks, they have awaited the return to Italy of President Philip Platek, who arrived in recent days from the United States, for the official presentation.

“Mister Gotti wants us to participate a lot in the offensive maneuver and I feel good about this”, said Caldara (who got the penalty against Como that allowed Spezia to go 2-1), returning to play continuously only since last season with Venezia, after difficult seasons marked by physical problems. “I’m here because I have to find minutes and performances”, underlined the defender who, thinking about the championship, said: “We need to score a lot of points, the gap is wider this year”.

Ekdal, on the other hand, has not yet been seen in the field, undergoing therapy to treat the plantar fasciitis that has been tormenting him for some time. “The recovery is going well, since I’ve been here we’ve done a great job, they’ve helped me a lot. I’m much better, I’m working with the group and I hope to be able to take the field as soon as possible, but I prefer to do things without being in a hurry. . But I’m better than I was at Sampdoria. ” (HANDLE).
