Olsen: ‘How difficult is to replace Alisson’

  • Mirko Laurenti
Roma’s goalkeeper Olsen spoke to Il Romanista about his arrival in Serie A and how difficult is to replace Allison.
"I came from a small league and many people did not even know my name, it was not easy to arrive after a strong goalkeeper like Alisson. I played a lot of games, most of them very well and I realized that this is the right way”. Later, he was asked how important was that embrace by De Rossi at the end of the match against Torino. “Much pressure on me, but I felt that during the match the whole team was supporting me. Clean sheet was important at the beginning”. In the end he talked about the social aspect of his life. “Newspaper, social, radio? I have my social profiles where everyone can write to me, but I tend not to read much. It’s my way of handling the pressure, I behaved the same way in Copenhagen, but even not reading, sincerely, I felt distrust. But then I understood that it’s normal coming after Alisson. It's even better to arrive this way and show your value. Now? Now I feel more trust, I've always felt it from the team. I'm improving, even with the language, I understand Italian better even if I do not speak perfectly yet "
