My Best Match
"My debut in Serie A this year against Real Rieti because there was so much emotion. We went down 2-0 and then we recovered to win 4-3. I didn’t score, but I went very close."

My biggest regret
"I don’t have any yet."

My favourite skill
"Defending the long diagonal pass because I really like to defend."

The AGLA model that enhances this skill
"The CONDOR LIGHT because they give great stability on any surface."

The most effective type of defence
"Man to man with pressing. I love the one on one because you can demonstrate your superiority over the opponent."

Most attractive attacking system
"The 4-0 because it doesn’t give reference points to the opponent."

What I eat before a match
"Pasta with tomato, ham and Parmesan cheese and a coffee."

My strongest opponent
"I like a lot of the players who have played in Serie A. Of everyone I choose Canal of Pescara because he doesn’t give a reference point to his opponent, is very fast and uses both feet. He is a complete player, very difficult to mark.”

Favourite Teammate
"Arlan Pablo Vieira who still plays in Corigliano. He is a complete player. He is physically strong and can play both in the 4-0 and in a system with a pivot. Also, he uses his left and right."

Characteristic of a coach
"The main thing is to know how to keep the group together. He must always have control of the situation in hand. He must be respected and make it clear that in the changing room he is in command."

Favourite Shoes
"The CONDOR LIGHT because they are comfortable, they fit very well and adapt quickly to the foot."

Favourite Ball
"The BOLA FUTSAL OFFICIAL because it is a very good ball and runs well on all surfaces."

Favourite Clothing
"The training sweatshirt: it is very warm and at the same isn’t heavy and does not restrict your movement on court."

The CONDOR model is equipped with the new technological development AGLA GRIP CONTROL, for absolute grip on court. The upper is made of a nubuck and breathable canvas. The sole uses a new concept of an eva foam ANTI-SHOCK insert, a system designed by AGLA to prevent tendinitis and micro trauma that over time can damage ligaments. It has the brand logo with breathable rubber. The model CONDOR is designed for fast and technical players who like to take to the court with light shoes. HONORIO, FORTINO and DE LUCA have worn the CONDOR model when they were crowned champions at the last Futsal Euro Championships in Antwerp.
