Grafite amazed by longevity of ex-Wolfsburg teammate Dzeko: I thought it was over after Roma

Former VfL Wolfsburg striker Grafite is amazed by Edin Dzeko's longevity.

The Inter Milan veteran played with Grafite at VfL.

He told the club's website: "A fantastic guy. Every now and then weexchange messages on Instagram, I follow him and in Brazil everyone associates my name with his because of the time spent together at Wolfsburg.

"I didn't think he would continue to play so well once he left Roma, at 37 it's far from easy, but at Inter he did very well even without the condition to always play 90 minutes. Today, however, he is much more experienced and he has shown it, he is able to score even with few chances. The first time I saw him, he struck me with how he used his left foot (Dzeko is right-footed)."
