Robinio Vaz: From OM to Italian Football Revolution

Transferred to Roma, Robinio Vaz launches an ambitious challenge. Italian clubs are rather reluctant to launch such young players. But the striker recruited from Olympique de Marseille could change their habits.

Considered a promising talent at Olympique de Marseille, Robinio Vaz (18) arrives at Roma anonymously. Italian observers know little about the striker recruited for 25 million euros including bonus. This is why the media Il Romanista inquired about the player’s profile from Christian Bracconi, the former Marseille U19 coach who worked with the Giallorossi recruit.

« I don’t like to make comparisons. He has his own personality, he will make his career because he is special, uniquedescribed the technician. With De Zerbi, in the first team in Marseille, he worked very well: he needs to structure himself, especially tactically. With Gasperini it will be difficult, but having a coach like him will be excellent. Energetic football. It’s a good choice for him. » The task still promises to be difficult within a large European team, especially in Italy where the clubs have less confidence in young people.

Everyone will see

– Christian Bracconi

« I have no doubt about his qualitiesnevertheless reassured Christian Bracconi. In Italy it will be different, but in the first team with Marseille he scored without surprise. This is his level, he is made to play at this height. Young people rarely play in Italy? It’s different in France, young people play. He can show that young people can actually play. Everyone will see him, his qualities can be guessed immediately. Three words to describe it? Generosity, joy and talent. » We can also add “courage” as Robinio Vaz has a long way to go before winning at Roma.
