In October 2023, Maresca said, as quoted in : “He is a winge𝕴r who loves to come inside so we can think to use him as an attacking midfielder.
“He can do more. He is adapting very well. He gave us two assists against Liverpool and Blackburn. He ✤arrived here not 100 per cent but now he is getting better. For sure he can give us much, much, much more, no doubt.”
“For me, he’s more an insi𝐆de player than a winger. Sometimes he has to play as a winger. But for me he’൩s more an inside player than a winger.”
