Salernitana, the attacking hierarchies to be rewritten. And Verde "breathes"

Ribery out with a serious injury, the grenades are looking for the right formula at the top. And they could find it with the former Spezia player.

Franck Ribery's serious injury, who will be out for about a month, inevitably forces Salernitana to review the attacking hierarchies. Against Udinese, Davide Nicola lined up Bonazzoli and Djuric in attack. The former played a good game and found the goal of momentary advantage, while the Serbian striker showed some flashes but was also imprecise in front of goal.

In the next few games, the grenade coach could decide to confirm their starting position or opt for the 4-3-3 module, with Verdi acting as a false nine. The former Turin player is a versatile and experienced footballer, who knows the category well and could be a valid alternative to the attacking couple.

Verde's characteristics

Verde is a 29-year-old forward, who grew up in the Roma youth sector. He has played for numerous Serie A teams, including Roma, Cagliari, Torino and Udinese. He is a quick and skilful player, with good technique and vision of the game.

He is not a prolific goalscorer, but he is good at providing assists and creating chances for his teammates. He is also a good free-kick taker.

In the last season with the grenade shirt, he scored 5 goals and provided 4 assists in 24 appearances. He was also decisive in the play-off victory against Palermo, scoring the winning goal in the first leg.

Conclusions

Verde could be a valid alternative to the attacking couple Bonazzoli-Djuric. He has the experience, the quality and the characteristics to play in Nicola's team. It is up to the grenade coach to decide whether to confirm him as a starter or to use him as a joker during the game.

However, the former Spezia player represents a valuable resource for Salernitana and could help the grenades to achieve their goals this season.
