Cesare Casadei \u2018can\u2019t wait\u2019 for his first experience with the senior Italy squad and explains why he chose Torino after Chelsea and those loan spells. \u2018I needed to get more regular playing time.\u2019<\/p>\n

The midfielder came up through the Inter youth academy, but was sold to Chelsea for just under \u20ac15m plus bonuses in 2022.<\/p>\n

There were loan spells with Reading and Leicester City before the transfer to Torino on deadline day in February for \u20ac13m plus add-ons.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has been a wonderful month and a half, so I am trying to enjoy this moment as much as possible,\u201d said Casadei in a press conference.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am working to settle in well and do what Toro need to win as many games as we can.\u201d<\/p>\n

He started this evening\u2019s 1-0 victory over Empoli and now has one goal and one assist in six Serie A appearances.<\/p>\n

Casadei finally gets Italy call<\/h2>\n

On top of the improved form for the Granata, Casadei has also earned his first senior Italy call-up for the Nations League quarter-finals against Germany.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am happy, it is something to be proud of and it\u2019s very exciting. I can\u2019t wait to have this experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

His move to Italy had been in doubt, especially when there was a transfer market tug of war between Torino and Europa League contenders Lazio, so what prompted his final decision?<\/p>\n

\u201cThe club showed more conviction in warning me, they had faith in me from the first minute and I knew that after the last few years, I needed to get more regular playing time,\u201d replied Casadei.<\/p>\n

\u201cI felt that Torino was the best place for me to play and show what I can do. I am trying to repay them for their trust and give my all for this jersey.\u201d<\/p>\n
