June 27, 22-year-old Rome striker Sule revealed in a recent interview that he had considered leaving Rome in January and rejected the Italian national team's call. He said Ranieri convinced him to stay with the team and now he is looking forward to the call of the Argentina national team.
Talking about rejecting Italy
"I played in Frosinone, and my coach Di Francesco knew former national coach Spaletti. One night I lived at Dybala's house and received a message saying that Spaletti would call me and invite me to join the national team. He did call, praised my performance, and expressed his wish that I could play for Italy. But when he came to our training base to find me personally, I told him that I would rather wait for the call of the Argentine national team."
Talking about just joining Roma
"I was not happy at the time, but Ranieri The arrival of the game changed everything. He told me I would get the chance, and it was indeed true. Rome is a beautiful city with a long history. Although we were not doing well at the beginning of the season, under Ranieri, we gradually got back to our form. "
Recalling the experience of working with Ronaldo at Juventus
"I was only 17 years old at that time, and I was very excited to be able to train with a superstar like Ronaldo. Once I was having a meal with a Uruguayan friend in a restaurant. Ronaldo sat next to us and we chatted for an hour. He talked about his life in Madrid, which I couldn't believe."
