The captain of the Nigerian football team shed light on his experiences in the Italian championship, emphasizing the significance of Serie A as a premier football league.
“I still follow Serie A; it’s a big league. This weekend’s fixture between Salernitana and Udinese holds special significance for me, especially considering it was the last match I played in my previous season.
The points would undoubtedly be more crucial for Salernitana than for Udinese,” remarked Troost-Ekong.
