Who is Andrea Compagno, pre-called up to the national team by Mancini-Corriere.it

There is also the name of Andrew Companion among Roberto Mancini’s pre-called up for Italy’s Euro 2024 qualifiers in the matches against England and Malta, and a surprise. Play Romania in the former Steaua Bucharest and just a new chapter in its incredible story. almost two meters tall (195 centimeters), he is a center forward and on April 22 he will be 27 years old. He has already scored 17 goals in 29 games: 16 in the league (24 appearances) and one in the Conference League (five appearances). He has a respectable nickname, Matador (like Cavani), and is the son of an artist. Because his dad, Rosario, also played with Palermo and Cosenza in Serie B. I rarely get so excited. We have a player in the reigning European national team, Compagno in Italy. Andrea has a seriousness that I have rarely seen in a player.

The email and the amazement

Valeriu Argaseala he called me and said: Have they forgotten your email? Compagno was called up to the national team. I asked him if he was joking. We’ve never had a player in the national team at this level, are the words of Mihai Stoica, the club’s general manager, at Orange Sports. Who would have thought that? Compagno started with the youth academy of Palermo, the city in which he was born, then moved on to Catania. Between 2015 and 2018 in the Amateurs he wore the shirts of Due Torri, Pinerolo, Torino Primavera, Argentina, Borgosesia and Nuorese. Then he moved on to Tre Fiori, one of the main teams in San Marino. L takes the first big step and rediscovers himself as a true striker: 37 goals in 41 official matches in two seasons, also playing the Europa League preliminaries. So he ends up at Craiova in Romania and from there to Steaua Bucharest. Not stopping scoring and attracting the attention of Roberto Mancini, who needs a centre-forward.

The sacrifices and the mess tin

With the right mess and the right head you have an extra gear. I lived in Pinerolo on a 400 euro salary, I was young and 1000 kilometers from home. I didn’t go out because I didn’t want to ask my parents for money and to make ends meet I did my shopping at the supermarket with a calculator. I never weighed myself. The return has arrived. I didn’t give up, his words in an interview with the Gazzetta dello Sport. And now she hopes to conquer the national team as well, carving out an important place for herself in the blue squad. The coach’s goal is to qualify for Euro 2024 by defending the title won in July 2021 at Wembley against England. Andrea Compagno aims to be there.
