Stefano Okaka : Parma Treated Me Very Badly
Published: July 16, 2014
Sampdoria striker Stefano Okaka has been speaking about his expectations for the upcoming season, and reckons that he will replicate his performance of last term or even surpass it.
Despite having to take a pay cut to formalize his switch to Sampdoria, he gave a good account of himself last season, netting 5 goals in 13 appearances.
“I always work to the fullest and believe in myself. If I do my best, I will have a good season in return,” the Italian - Nigerian said in an interview with Il Secolo XIX.
“For me it was not so difficult, especially because it was the difficult situation in which I found myself. They (Parma) treated me very badly . Had the opportunity to play for a club even more prestigious and I grabbed it.
“Money certainly has value. But the paths of life led me to also do other types of reasoning.”
Speaking on his relationship with manager Sinisa Mihajlovic, Okaka said : “With the coach I was immediately okay . Now I‘m here, he makes me feel good and I try to reciprocate.”
Sampdoria will face Eintracht Frankfurt and West Ham in exhibition matches before the start of the Serie A.
