The Serbian midfielder will be fundamental in the fight for survival. Cioffi has therefore launched a new role more suited to him
In Reggio Emilia against Sassuolo, coach Cioffi must have definitively convinced himself that the role of midfielder is not the most suitable one for Samardzic. After several back and forths this season, the coach wants to try to play his chances of survival with Laki as an attacking midfielder. In fact, coverage is not Samardzic’s strong suit. It is therefore better to move him further forward, in line with another attacking midfielder, as happened against Inter and Roma.
In that position the Serbian talent is more free to look for space to create the play. With Pereyra alongside and Payero as midfielder there is the right balance. The move of the double attacking midfielder has also already been made by Serbia coach Dragan Stojkovic, who in the last friendly match against Cyprus received an assist from Samardzic in that role. The hope that the move will be decisive for Udinese’s salvation.
