The victory against Sampdoria “gave us a lot of positivity. Now we must continue on this path and we will be able to take away a lot of satisfaction ”.

Word of Keita Baldè, who spoke to Radiolina's microphones about the situation on the Sardinian team's championship and on the sensations of his first weeks on the island.

The rossoblù number 9 also spoke about his feeling with Joao Pedro, who immediately appeared particular. "From a footballing point of view we speak the same language. We are similar in many respects", said the Senegalese footballer, saying he was convinced that his teammate "deserves a chance in the national team, given what he has shown on the pitch in recent years".

The attacker also recounted what it is like to train under the guidance of Walter Mazzarri: “It takes a lot of heart and soul. He wants to see us focused, especially from a defensive point of view. In short, always on the piece ".

As for his arrival in Cagliari, Keita revealed that to convince him to take the plane to the island was a call from President Giulini: "A nice chat between two true and sincere men", he explained, adding then having arrived with a "crazy desire" to do well and to feel, game after game, "always better" from a physical point of view.

Then the relationship with the rossoblù fans, "very warm, true football lovers", and the discovery of Cagliari, "a city with a great atmosphere, where people treated me from day one with affection and love".

Finally, the next match, against Fiorentina, back from two consecutive knockouts and looking for redemption. “It remains a great team, with a lot of quality. They will want to win, as we want to win. But I believe that with the right mentality we can hurt them too ”.

The hope is - of course - also to return to scoring soon. In this regard, a "prophecy" by Carlo Cracco has arrived, in these days in Cagliari and who has also cooked for number 9 rossoblù: "He served me - revealed Keita - a special risotto, telling me: 'Go, with this Sunday score a goal '",
