Jacob Ondrejka, a midfielder for Parma, gave some statements during his introductory press conference ahead of Milan - Parma, the Matchday 23 fixture of the 2024/2025 Serie A season, scheduled for Sunday, January 26, at 12:30 PM CET.
The Swedish player, born in 2002, particularly focused on his compatriot, Zlatan Ibrahimović, the former striker and now senior advisor for RedBird at Milan, describing him as a role model. Here are his words:
"I'm excited and ready to play: I’ve had two training sessions, and before the match against Milan, there will be the final practice session, and then Sunday is game day. I can’t wait to get started. Ibrahimović? If I’ve been following Serie A for so long, it’s also because of his presence. Everyone in Sweden knows about Serie A."
He continued to talk about Zlatan Ibrahimovic:
"I see Zlatan as a point of reference and a role model. He’s the greatest footballer to have ever played for the Swedish national team. My goal is to get close to what he has achieved. I chose the number 17 because it’s a number I had at Antwerp before changing it, and also because Hazard wore it at Chelsea. Like Zlatan, he’s also a point of reference."
