"At first it was a bit strange, everything changed in one day. I'm excited about my new role, being able to lend a helping hand to the team and staff. I gladly accepted Nikola's offer. I am very grateful to the club that did everything to keep me in Salerno.

I have won many trophies. I did not have the experience of playing for a team that was fighting for survival. But the fact that we avoided relegation from Serie A was incredible. When the season ends like this, at the last moment, and you see the joy of the fans, it's an unforgettable emotion. Never give up, in short, I've always believed in that," Ribéry was quoted as saying by Il Mattino.
