After experienced custodian Sebastien Frey departed for Bursaspor this summer questions had been raised regarding who would take over goalkeeping duties for the Grifone and it appears the 20-year-old will get his chance after a loan spell with Pescara.
“Viviano is an important player, I had already taken half [of his contract in a co-ownership deal] two years ago, but we have Perin and want to give space to young people,” Preziosi told Sky Sport Italia.
The 65-year-old entrepreneur also discussed the possibility of Andreas Granqvist heading to AC Milan before the transfer window closes, however, despite meeting Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani for dinner denied that they had discussed a deal for the Swede.
“We have not talked about Granqvist, I just praised the moral qualities of the boy.” said Preziosi.
“Then maybe we can talk later [if he] admitted that he really interests at Milan and his coach.“
