Happy for the victory in Lamia and… reassuring about the progress of the discussions on the extension of his contract with Panathinaikos appeared Alberto Brignoli. The 32-year-old Italian goalkeeper is committed until the summer of 2024 and the “greens” want to tie him to them. His statements in detail:
For the victory over Lamia: “We knew we had to face a difficult opponent. The opponent was good and maybe we didn’t play our best game, but we won thanks to our character, thanks to our confidence and thanks to the changes. I want to say that the players who came on as a substitute brought freshness. Like Sporar in this case who not only scored the winning goal, but also on two occasions prevented us from conceding goals with his interventions.”
Regarding the fact that Panathinaikos has 4/4 in the province: “Away wins are always good, as they are not easy. From there I would say today the team did well, but we definitely need to improve in certain parts of the game. I think the result today is the important thing.”
Regarding the renewal of his contract and what is his intention: “There is no problem. We are actually talking about the future. We continue these discussions. We talk calmly and without any problems. The team is always above each player.”
On whether he has the call-up to the Italian National Team in the back of his mind and dreams of it: “First of all thank you very much for your question, but I would see it as impossible because there are other goalkeepers in Italy younger than me and possibly better, who deserve it. Thank you very much for your question, because it alone shows that I have done something good.”
