The January arrival from Chelsea is in the Senior Azzurri team for the first time.
He admitted this morning: “It is all very fast, to be honest, I just try to stay focused on the present, to do what I can do. I think to work day after day, it is always a pleasure to receive compliments from the coach and be called up is a source of pride. I try to do my best because I said that the compliments of the national coach are proud to continue working.”
On what Chelsea gave him, Casadei continued: “A lot. I can speak for myself, it is not the same for everyone and everyone has to make their own journey. I can only say that these two years in England have given me a lot: I came out like another person and as a football player. I can only thank those who helped me, I am proud of the journey I made.
“It's a different football than Italian. From a technical point of view, one of the most important differences is the intensity, but Serie A is also very intense and competitive. That is perhaps the most important difference.”
Casadei also said about Torino: “I am very happy, I think my integration in the group was helped by the confidence that I felt from the start. It was what I was looking for, a team that I could play as much as possible and the continuity that I could find. I am very happy, I have to the coach, the staff, my teammates.”
And on coach Paolo Vanoli he added: “He gives me a lot in these first months in Italy. I missed continuity, that's why I came here: to get trust back and the desire to have fun. If you don't play, it's not always easy.
