During an appearance on talkSPORT, he expressed:

“Naturally, we have concerns. However, Scott deserves every chance to evolve. It may not happen immediately or even next season, but if a suitable opportunity presents itself, he has truly earned it.”

He further elaborated on the challenges facing Italian clubs:

“The situation is tough for teams in Italy as the league continues to experience revenue losses.
