Terem Moffi lauds Francesco Farioli

Following Moffi's goal against VfB Stuttgart in the UEFA Europa League, the former Lorient striker revealed how the tiny details from Farioli have helped him become a better player.

“You stick with the little details. The touch, the right time to show up, the timing, all that,” the Super Eagles forward said in quotes revealed by Record Portugal.

“As a player, that's what sets you apart from all the rest of the details. And that’s exactly what he’s been looking to do for the last two or three years.

“I feel a huge pride in representing FC Porto. It’s something very big for me and also for my family.

“The energy here is good, there are no negativities. We have to stay focused. Having the will to play, wanting to evolve and be an authentic family. So we have been working hard these last few days and weeks,” Moffi concluded.
