L’Italy will face the Belgium of Lukaku in the quarters of Euro 2020. Radja Nainggolan has not been summoned by Martinez and will enjoy the game on television, perhaps with a beer in hand. The midfielder of the Cagliari, on loan fromInter, thus spoke of the heavy absences of Kevin De Bruyne ed Eden Hazard: “In Italy they are mainly concerned about injured Belgians. Logical, isn’t it? On paper, these are the two most important players for the Red Devils. In collaboration with Romelu Lukaku, Kevin ed Eden they are a gold value for the team. Without those two it will be very, very difficult for the Belgium“, dice Nainggolan a Gazette of Antwerp.
Nainggolan analyzed the situation ofItaly: “They are in a good moment, but their last match againstAustria it was not good. It is all difficult to predict. The Red Devils were also not very top, but just like the Italians they win their games. As long as they win, that’s fine. Against the Portugal, I was particularly impressed with the defense. I think theItaly will want to take control of the game. But honestly, I’m not sure. The old bolt? Under Mancini, l’Italy always wants to attack. With Jorginho e Verratti they also have a lot of dribbling skills in midfield. L’Italy he has nothing to lose. So I think there is a little more pressure on Belgium“.
Nainggolan he obviously has no doubts about who to cheer on: “I still hear regularly Romelu Lukaku e Dries Mertens, recently too Born Chadli. We don’t usually talk about football. Who will we cheer for on Friday? My wife (Claudia Lai, ed) is not a passionate football fan and my eldest daughter has sided with the Belgians. So obviously we will be supporting the Red Devils. I really hope they win the tournament ”.
To close, Nainggolan talked about his future. The Belgian still has a one-year contract with theInter but it could end outright at Cagliari: “Yes, I read it too. A lot is being written, but the only truth is that I don’t know yet. I’m just enjoying my holidays right now, the market isn’t open yet. It remains to be seen ”.
