Il Papu Gomez In an interview given to 'Corriere della Sera' he explained the reasons why he decided to return to Italy, wearing the jersey of the Monza, rejecting the Saudi proposal.
"First of all, it wasn't an offer you couldn't refuse, the kind that changes your life. Then, when I looked up the city I was supposed to move to in the middle of the desert in the atlas, I thought: Thanks, but I'm not taking my three children there...", the Argentine playmaker told Corriere.
"How much of Gasperini is there in Palladino? 90 percent. I think Palladino took a lot of inspiration from his mentor: I see him in the physical, tactical, and athletic aspects. That's why I settled in quickly here at Monza: I know the coach's system well. He has a big-name mentality; if we players give him a hand, he'll have a great future."
