In his farewell post at Inter, Samir Handanovic has made it clear that he wants to continue playing on the pitch: could Roma be the one for him?
Roberto Scarnecchia, coach, spoke to the microphones of calciomercato.it, broadcast on the Twitch TVPLAY channel. Surprisingly, the interviewee spoke about a possible Handanovic-Roma deal. Days ago there was talk of a possible probe by Lazio.
The Slovenian goalkeeper knows the capital city quite well: he moved to Lazio in 2006, at the start of his career. And according to some rumours, he was proposed to the biancoceleste club in recent days. According to Scarnecchia, however, the former Inter captain would be better off at Roma.
“Roma’s squad was already quite complete before,” said the interviewee. “But now you have to thin it out. The central area is missing: goalkeeper, defender, midfielder and forward, that’s where you need to strengthen the team and complete it. The main problem is the goalkeeper, I don’t want Rui Patricio to blame me. “
“I would take Szczesny back and to do one or two years I would take Handanovic for nothing,” continued the coach, speaking about Roma’s possible new goalkeeper. “Rui Patricio is a good 12th man. He can no longer be a starter, even Mourinho knows that.”
Handanovic, in fact, could still give a lot to Serie A, both technically and as a locker room man. Onana, bidding farewell to Inter, admitted that the Slovenian had shown him great fair play: “Samir’s task was not easy, but he was always fair with me,” said the Cameroonian.

Mourinho
“I like both Morata and Scamacca. I prefer the former: Scamacca is a younger Abraham, with the same characteristics. Morata, on the other hand, can play with the Englishman and with Dybala behind him he would do well. “
“Pinto is moving very well,” said Scarnecchia afterwards. “So I would wait to see these new arrangements to understand the movement of the clubs with these new rules. They are all a little penalised and a little advantaged. Morata at thirty-one is still young. In contemporary football, the age has been extended and you can play for another five or six years. In the end only winning counts, in this case you are always right. De Laurentiis sold Mertens, Insigne and Koulibaly and in the end he won the championship’.
Finally, the interviewee returned to the final lost by Roma. ‘The Europa League final was decided by the referee with two big mistakes. The teams were in the balance. Everyone can say it was a draw, then it’s as if we won it, because penalty kicks are a roulette. Mourinho should open up some parameters, his staff are all yesmen”.
