Edin Džeko: Salah will bring more quality to ROMA
Less than 24 hours after Edin Džeko arrived in Rome to find 5,000 fans waiting to greet him at the airport, the club’s new No.9 took time out to reflect on the reception he received and deliver a promise to supporters…
Edin Džeko in an interview with AS Roma TV:
Can you describe how it feels to finally be a Roma player?
“It took a little bit longer than expected but now I’m here and I’m very, very happy to be here.”
There were huge crowds waiting for you at the airport. How did that make you feel?
“I expected some people but not so many. I have to say I was amazed by how many there were to greet me and I just want to say thank you to all the fans who came to the airport and also when I had my medical. Also, thank you to all the fans on Twitter and Instagram who welcomed me to Rome.”
Mohamed Salah joined Roma on Thursday. Is he a player who excites you?
“I know him, even from Basel, and I remember when he played against the English team and scored a few goals. I think his last year at Fiorentina was a great season for him and I think Roma can be happy to have a player like him here. Hopefully he can bring some more quality to this team.”
