Fabio Capello Compare Nicolo Zaniolo with Paul Pogba

DBasia.news –  Nicolo Zaniolo, the wonderkid of AS Roma, continues to invite sensations because of his great game. The former Roma coach, Fabio Capello, compared him to Paul Pogba.

Nicolo Zaniolo continued to invite sensation since joining AS Roma in the summer transfer window of 2018. At that time, Zaniolo was part of the exchange of Radja Nainggolan.

Slowly but surely, Nicolo Zaniolo began to become a new idol at AS Roma. The 19-year-old player constantly stole the attention.

Latest, Nicolo Zaniolo scored twice as AS Roma hosted Porto in the last 16 of the Champions League 2018-2019. Thanks to Zaniolo’s contribution, I Lupi won 2-1.

The Italian youth’s appearance invited admiration from the legendary coach, Fabio Capello. According to Capello, Nicolo Zaniolo could become AS Roma’s Paul Pogba.

“Paul Pogba and Nicolo Zaniolo always likes to play the ball. They have never made a safe decision and are aiming for goals,” Fabio Capello told Sky Sport Italia.

“It is self-confidence, the desire to take risks and have character. Nicolo Zaniolo always keeps the ball and passes the opponent to score.”

“His attitude was the same as Paul Pogba. Both provided assists and scored goals. But the tattoos on his left foot didn’t really impress me,” added Fabio Capello.

Throughout the 2018-2019 season, Nicolo Zaniolo appeared in 22 matches with AS Roma. Of these, Zaniolo recorded five goals and two assists.
