The Argentina winger has left Juventus for Roma in a permanent transfer.
He said at his presentation: “I’m so pleased. I’d like to thank the Friedkin family for bringing me here, as they’ve done everything for me.
“For me, it’s a dream to be here given how much they wanted me and how much I wanted to come here. My family and girlfriend have been so supportive, as well as everyone else who works with me. I can’t wait to get started.”
On the influence of Argentina teammates Paulo Dybala and Leandro Paredes, he continued: “I have spoken to them. As soon as the rumours about me coming here started, they told me about what it’s like here and how happy they are. I also asked them about it all. Every day, I spoke more and more about it with Paulo: ‘When are you coming? Come on, I’m waiting for you, there’s a free space for you’.”
Soule also said: “I assessed everything before coming here. In terms of the coach, I saw how the team played last year, and how it’s changed since he came in. He’s really incredible. As for being here and training with him, he’s also spent time in Argentina and understands everything. He speaks Argentine Spanish, so that will be really helpful.
“It took quite a few days, but I just wanted it to happen straight away. I was convinced in every regard, from the coach to the club. What I wanted more than anything was to stay in Italy and come to Roma.”
