Gossenz: I don t deny that I m considering returning to Atlanta in the summer window, but now Florence is my home

September 8 News Recently, Florence defender Gossen was interviewed by the Evening Post. The German defender talked about transfer rumors, goals for the new season and national team recruitment.

◉ About Fiorentina's goal for the new season, Gossens said: "It seems to me that it is a huge advantage to be able to retain most of the rosters last season. We skipped the running-in process, and the team has already understood each other's strengths and weaknesses. Not only on the court, but also in life. During the years we played for Atlanta, we started each season with a mature style of play and a stable lineup, and we all saw it. We have the opportunity to stand at the forefront in this league, but obviously we have to prove that we can take a bigger step: to keep stability. Last year We scored 65 points, and in the locker room we said that the goal was to surpass this score. Entering the Champions League is the best thing, and we will definitely try our best to fight for it."

◉ About transfer rumors from AteA[A]" They called me and told me that they were interested in me. I don't deny that I thought about it because Fiorentina is home to me now, but the same is true for Atalanta. I have had very good years in Atalanta, and during the most difficult time in the COVID-19 pandemic, I have established a bond beyond sports with the city, and this relationship will always exist. Because of this I immediately said that I would give the decision to the club. When Fiorentina said to me that 'no possibility' to let me leave, I was very happy to stay. I was also proud of the trust of Chairman Comiso and the entire club. At Purple Lily I felt important, and now I just want to repay this trust."

◉ Talking about coach Pioli

"What surprised me was that the head coach could establish a good relationship with the players so easily. Sometimes people come to the training ground with emotions, maybe thinking about the transfer market, or making some simplicity in training The mistake. But he can always use the right words to resolve everything at the right moment. Always like this. "

◉ Talking about missing the call for the last European Cup

"In my opinion, my loss is that I play in Serie A, and the exposure of this league is relatively low. Nagelsman often goes to watch Bundesliga games on site, but he has never been here, and only when I scored goals will anyone talk about me in Germany. But I know I am a player worthy of being selected for the national team. Last season I scored 8 goals and sent 9 assists. If you talk about the data of wing defensive players, this is the top European level."
