Bet that Willy Gnonto pinches himself every morning to see if he’s still dreaming..? Because for days, the 18-year-old FCZ joker has been sitting next to Italian superstars like Jorginho, Donnarumma or Bonucci at breakfast. Even the appointment of coach Mancini as a perspective player in the extended squad of the “Squadra Azzurra” was a surprise.
That he even made the cut among the top 23 was a sensation. And now, according to the “Gazzetta”, it is no longer so unlikely that the little crowd favorite of the FCZ will even make its debut with the big ones in the next four games in the Nations League. “Gnonto has impressed in recent days with his attitude, speed and goal threat,” writes the Italian Football Bible.
Maybe Gnonto will make his debut today once morest Germany. The little striker from Baveno in the province of Verbania doesn’t even have a driver’s license and is therefore regularly picked up by his dad Boris from the FCZ training ground.
Can the Swiss champion hold Gnonto following his days with the European champion? At least it will be difficult.
