AS ROMA: GERVINHO “I’M HERE TO WIN TITLES”
Gervinho’s impressive performances in Serie A since joining Roma last summer continue to draw praise. In a recent interview with the French sports daily, L’Equipe, Roma coach Rudi Garcia expressed his admiration for Gervinho, highlighting their strong relationship both on and off the field.
Garcia emphasized that Gervinho knows him well and knows how to put him at ease, describing their bond as akin to that between a father and a son. Gervinho’s contributions on the pitch have been significant, with 5 goals and 7 assists so far this season, earning the trust and confidence of his teammates and coaches.
The Ivorian international attributes his success to the trust placed in him by the team, allowing him to play with freedom and effectiveness. Despite experiencing mixed fortunes during his time at Arsenal, where he scored 11 goals in 63 matches over two seasons, Gervinho maintains a positive outlook on his career.
He acknowledges the differences in playing style between the Premier League and Serie A, noting the physical and intense nature of the former compared to the tactical nuances of the latter. Gervinho’s ambition for the season is clear: to secure qualification for the Champions League with Roma and potentially contend for silverware, building on his previous successes with Lille.
