Empoli coach: Shpendi has everything it takes to become a great player

2023-08-11 16:49:04, Sport CNA

Steven Shpendi joined the Emrpoli club a few days ago, which believed in the young Albanian striker, seeing in him a tremendous potential. This was also confirmed by the coach of the Serie A team, Paolo Zaneti, who, speaking to the media about the Cup match against Citadella, also touched on the transfer of Shpendi, which he assessed as an important investment for the club.

"The only thing that worries me is the expectation around him. We have made a significant investment in what is our dimension and he has everything he needs to become a player of a very high level, as he combines very high speed with good technique and especially a will and a hunger which is rarely seen.

He has impressed me since the first day he arrived, both outside the field of play for his humility, and on the field for the way he is "cheeky". It reminds me a lot of Baldanzi, it's things that those type of players have that have a certain type of perspective.

Time will be crucial, so as not to burn the stages. If I understand that his time is tomorrow, he will have that time. If it's going to be in 3-4 months, it's going to be in 3-4 months, but everything happens to protect the guy and the investment that's been made.

I'm sure it won't take him long, as he is a really important guy. Let's protect it. I told him that from the first minute he set foot here, the work of improving the shortcomings that he has, that we have singled out, as well as consolidating the things he knows how to do, begins. These are its targets, there should be no loads or other things.

We have seen Kambiagi, who came from a team falling from Serie B to C, did 2-3 months in anonymity and then 5 months that made us think that he had no connection to this reality here. He must make a similar journey", were Zanet's words about the Albanian talent.
