Belotti for the Conference final: “I would give everything to score and win the trophy”

The countdown to the grand final of the Europa Conference League, between Olympiakos and Fiorentina in OPAP Arena(29/5 22:00) has started for good, since there is exactly one week left for the big “date”.

At the “viola” Media Day, o Andrea Belotti spoke about the upcoming game and emphasized the fact that he very much wants to get the trophy, while emphasizing that a year ago, competing in Romahe would not have thought that he would be with the Florence team, in another final in his career, after winning the Euro2020 with the Italy, but also last year’s loser, in the Europa League with Roma against Sevilla. We remind you that the experienced forward left Rome for Florence, at the end of the winter transfer period, in the form of a loan.

“If they had told me a year ago that I would play in the European final with Fiorentina, I wouldn’t have believed it. And that’s because you need to go a long way to reach a final“, he said initially, while continuing:

“You should play a lot of matches where you often find strong teams. We know how hard it is to get to the end.

We managed it again this year, given that my teammates had managed it last year as well and this can be an additional motivation for us”.

For winning Euro2020, which was again “away” from home: “For me, my presence at the previous Euro counts a lot, because I will carry that experience throughout my career. We had to keep our composure there because we were playing in England against the English and in the morning we found ourselves behind on the scoreboard.

Everything seemed to be bad for us but in the end we managed to manage the situation perfectly. This is what we will have to do, if necessary, this time as well.”



For the May 29 final:I would give anything to score and Fiorentina take the trophy. I know how important this trophy is to this city and this shirt.

I’m ready to give anything, we’ll do anything for Florence and Joe Barone (p.s. the general director of the violas who passed away at the age of 57 a few months ago, from a heart attack)”.
