German Pezzella says he is hoping to “make history” with Fiorentina and stay at the club permanently.
Pezzella has impressed since joining Fiorentina on loan with an option to buy last summer, and the Argentine defender is keen to emulate former Viola stopper and countryman Gonzalo Rodriguez.
“If I am who I am today, it’s thanks to Daniel Passarella, who was my President at River Plate for four years,” he told Il Corriere Fiorentino.

“If I am who I am today, it’s thanks to Daniel Passarella, who was my President at River Plate for four years,” he told Il Corriere Fiorentino.
“I’ve settled in quickly with the Viola because this is a club that know what they want. Gonzalo [Rodriguez] made history here, and I’ll work hard to do the same.
“As for me staying here, I haven’t talked to Corvino yet, but I’ve already made my decision: I want to stay with Fiorentina and respect my four-year contract.”
