The agent of Nicola Zalewski has welcomed Daniele de Rossi's changes at AS Roma.

Giovanni Ferro is happy De Rossi replaced the sacked Jose Mourinho.

“Zalewski never wanted to leave in January, that was not true, as he has always supported Roma," Ferro told Numero Diez.

“De Rossi returned him to his natural position, the one he was accustomed to since he was a kid, and now we expect him to make a step up in quality.

“If he is placed closer to the opposition goal, it can only benefit him. He is fresh, quick, sparkling, so the fewer defensive obligations he has, the more he can express his qualities."
