Ekdal looks to the future: “It’s always nice to win like that but now let’s focus on Fiorentina”

Sampdoria’s Swedish midfielder Albin Ekdal has settled into life in Genoa with such ease that you’d be forgiven for thinking he’d been wearing the famous Blucerchiati colours for a lifetime.

Speaking after Samp’s 5-0 mauling of Frosinone on Saturday, Ekdal stressed the need for Doria to keep their feet on the ground after the big win and focus on the challenges to come.

“It’s always nice to win, but we need to keep this up,” he told Samp Official Media. “We have another game on Wednesday against Fiorentina so we want to build on this. We did well against Napoli and again here at the Stirpe, but now we need to focus on working hard and preparing for our upcoming matches.”
