Chelsea defender Ampadu admits Venezia bouncing after shock Fiorentina win

Venezia defender Ethan Ampadu admits the club is bouncing after victory over Fiorentina.

Ampadu is on a straight season-long loan at Venezia from Chelsea.

He said today: "It was my first victory on the pitch with Venezia, against Fiorentina we proved to be a good team, a nice mix of experts and young talents. When I played I always saw excellent chemistry and from now on we can only grow, we can stay in Serie A.

"We have just arrived in Serie A and therefore we are still a bit immature, so the teams that come here think they can make the result, it is up to us to prove that we are from Serie A. It is also important to think about one game at a time."

Of his versatility, Ampadu added: "Apart from being an attacker, I can play anywhere, I'm very young but I've already played in different positions, this can only help me in my career. Of course I want to play, but wherever I'm asked to do so, I'll be happy to make myself available."
