Verona striker Giovanni Simeone was interviewed by Sportweek yesterday about his life in Verona, as well as the nickname "Cholito", which he inherited from his father, Simeone.
About your goals
"I've done well this season, but I haven't reached my full potential yet and the room for improvement in the future is up to me. My childhood dream was to play in the Champions League or play in the World Cup, but today I am also very happy and I don't need to think about anything else here. ”
In addition to scoring goals, Simeone Jr. always ran tirelessly on the field
"I'll go and watch all the games against the opponent and then focus on the opponent's defenders, and I'll also look at the movement characteristics of the goalkeepers. I studied every detail of my opponent so that I could break through the defensive line during the game. ”
About nicknames "Cholito" and Atletico
"I'm a Fan of Atletico, but there's no point in thinking about joining Atletico right now. I didn't like the fans calling me 'Cholito' before, and I think the fans call me that out of respect for my father. But now I really like the nickname because I think the 'Cholito' in the mouths of the fans is Giovanni Simone, not Diego Simeone's son. ”
