Wilfried Gnonto’s (18) career is going up steeply. Thanks to a dream season at FCZ, Roberto Mancini (57), coach of the Italian national team, became aware of the winger.
Just a few days later makes Gnonto his Azzurri debut – and that too once morest Germany. The FCZ jewel immediately repays the trust in its coach. Only five minutes following being substituted on, he nibbled on PSG defender Thilo Kehrer (25) and served in an exemplary manner for the interim 1-0 lead.
Mancini raves regarding the FCZ star
The 18-year-old was showered with praise for his gala performance. Coach Mancini at the press conference following the game: “Gnonto is a strong player, extremely fast. He’s a striker with great qualities and he can still improve a lot.”
Gnonto himself says regarding his debut to the Italian TV station Rai Sport: «I was very excited before my debut. The coach gave me a chance and I think I took it.”
Soccer world celebrates Gnonto
And how he used it. Because not only Mancini, but also the Italian press and the entire football world is enthusiastic regarding the FCZ whirlwind. Sky Sport writes: “He comes on and is immediately decisive.”
Eurosport is also enthusiastic: “What a debut! He immediately mixes up the right side and gives Pellegrini the perfect ball to lead. » Gnonto plays like he’s on the playground with a few co-workers.
«Italy discovers a jewel»
Italy’s largest sports newspaper, the Gazzetta dello Sport, dedicates a post to Gnonto on Instagram. «Italy discovers a jewel. Born in 2003, 18 years old, a lot of talent and a desire to work: the national team has a new youngster at the start,” writes the newspaper.
The FCZ player is also celebrated on “433”, the most well-known football page with over 50 million Instagram subscribers. “Gnonto is a beast,” writes a user under a post from the game between Italy and Germany. The comment is liked over 2500 times.
The FCZ will be happy. Gnonto’s market value should rise sharply once more thanks to his appearance in the Azzurri dress. The 18-year-old still has a contract with the city of Zurich until 2023. If he changes this summer, a double-digit million sum should go to the FCZ account. (fmu)
