“We are preparing for the Premier League, doing our training, and we are together with a new coaching staff and new transfers. I have no worries, I’m sure it will be an incredible year.”
Idman.biz reports that this was said by Diogo Vasques Rollo, the Brazilian defender of Imishli, in an interview with Sportal.az.
The Brazilian, who played for Imishli in the First League last season, said he believed the club would offer him a new contract: “We had already started negotiations for the contract renewal, and yes, I believed the team would keep me. Because, thank God, I had a very good season at ‘Imishli.’ I am once again happy and grateful for this opportunity.”
Rollo also spoke about Imishli’s goals in the Premier League: “First of all, I think having the goal to stay in the elite is good. But football is a game of 11 against 11. I know we can surprise. I understand very well that the Premier League is very different from the lower league. But I feel ready for it. Actually, I have been waiting for such a moment my whole life. I’m excited and have focused a lot on this challenge.”
