The double life of Captain Florenzi

Five benches in a row after Sampdoria are a clear sign: Florenzi, at the moment, is no longer a holder of Rome. As reported The weather, during the October stopover Fonseca told the 28-year-old that as a right-back he would have preferred Spinazzola and, alternatively, Santon. Florenzi is therefore the third and last (without counting Zappacosta) on that band and also in the "new" role of external offensive they were preferred – both from the first minute and in the current race – Zaniolo, Kluivert, Perotti, Under, waiting of Mkhitaryan, who missed the last round of injured matches. That of Florenzi in the summer seemed a year of rosy prospects after having inherited the captain's armband from De Rossi and making peace with the fans of the Curva Sud. The number 24, summoned by Mancini, however, accepted Fonseca's decisions with serenity , rejoicing with his teammates after goals and victories, never venturing into controversial statements. He is convinced he will regain the place soon. But if it does not happen, also in view of Euro2020, Florenzi and his attorney will make the right assessments of the future.
