The agent of Manolo Gabbiadini says he's happy in the UAE with Al Nasr.

The former Southampton, Napoli and Sampdoria striker is well settled in Dubai, says Silvio Pagliari.

He told TMW: "Beautiful experience, another type of football, challenging too. If you're not mentally well, you never get it, he's fine, he started well even scoring several goals. A good choice.

"Dubai is beautiful, it is an international city, the difference with Europe is less noticeable. It's a little like Las Vegas, a city a little chaotic. It's an experience made at the right time and he is happy. And when one of your clients is happy, it means you did a good job."

He also said: "In today's football it is difficult to think about what will happen in a year or two. Manolo has turned 32, he can still play 3-4 years at a high level. I saw him well from a physical point of view, like in his golden days.

"Knowing him, he will play until he is well, then when his legs no longer turn he will be the first to say stop. Manolo is a boy from another era, everyone should take an example from him. I see many guys after a couple of games in Serie A, driving around with a racing car and a branded watch on their wrist."
