“Drăgusin is very talented, but he hasn't shown anything yet. The problem is that he got injured, he has some extraordinary qualities
In my opinion, I wouldn't have taken the step to England, maybe I would have stayed with a bigger team than playing in Serie A. Italy was a “glove”, but it has something. It can grow, I can see it as a defender. He has to work very hard.
The English game is much faster than the Italian game. I've seen Drăgușin, he has great strength, big guy, but he doesn't have that speed. That's what he misses. You can work on it, but you have to focus on it”, said Gabriel Tamaș, according to digisport.ro.
