Otherwise I would have had a different career, and I would probably have played in the 1990 World Cup, when Ficini laid a lot of siege on this squad.” Here is his story.

“I lived in Tor Sapienza, when I was a kid I underwent a Lazio performance and that’s how I started. My father was from Rome, but there was not all that passion.

As a professional, Fascetti was very important, and so was Bagnoli. The relationship with Ericsson was not the best, because I came from a severe injury. I had a great opportunity in Fiorentina, but I didn’t take full advantage of it, even for my own fault“.
