Cellino: 'Tonali? It is worth 300 million. I renew to keep it, Juve wanted a defender '

Massimo Cellino, president of Brescia, spoke in an interview with the Gazzetta dello Sport:TONALS –

«His talent is under everyone's eyes, but I especially like his smile. Sandro is also special for this: he likes to play football, the rest does not move him. Yet there was a risk that so much notoriety would put him in difficulty. It can still improve a lot. I've never had such a strong player. And to say that one sacrifices for everyone. If he shifted his radius of action further ahead he would score even more goals: you can see, he goes to the shot naturally. The agent and parents asked me about the 50 million quote the other day. I replied that for me it's worth 300, which means I don't want to sell it. I have a Dream. If Sandro agrees to stay I am ready for a great economic sacrifice to renew the contract (expires in 2021 ed). It's up to him to decide: know that here he can continue to have fun, but if he goes into a big one, he risks not playing ».WHO WANTS THAT – «In Italy all the big names. From abroad Atletico Madrid, Psg and City. But for me it is better that you remain protagonist in Brescia ».

CISTANA – "At the beginning of the season Juve had put his eyes on us, thank goodness I immediately renewed the contract. It grows in all senses, physically and by personality. Of defenders like this, at that age, I don't see many around ”.

BALOTELLI – "He must find the best shape and he is the first to know. He is behaving very well, out of commitment and attitudes. Thus he is disproving with the facts the fame that accompanies him ".

VAR – "I appreciated the referee Calvarese, minus the Var. It is the fourth time in this league that a goal has been taken away for external intervention. I repeat, Calvarese is an excellent race director: like him many others. In recent years the average has improved, so it is good to leave the ball in hand to the referees. Instead, the Var is likely to condition them, to take away their sense of responsibility. Harm for everyone. I don't discuss the medium. I'm just saying that you have to give the ball to the referees instead of leaving them at the mercy of the indications that come out of the field. This is not good for me. "

DESSENA – «Unfortunately it is an important loss. They asked me to invoke Pulgar's disqualification, but I believe in good faith. No appeals. Rather, I extended the contract to 2021. It had automatic renewal after 25 races: it is right that I immediately cross the finish line. A sign of esteem and trust for an important player for us ».
