Under-21 starlet Sebastian Giovinco “is the new Gianfranco Zola,” according to his Empoli teammates.

The Juventus-owned creative figure has been spectacular this season and could return to Turin in the summer.

“He has extraordinary quality and always tries to improve. He has everything needed to reach the senior Nazionale,” commented Vittorio Tosto on Radio Kiss Kiss.

Giovinco was told as a youngster that he would not do well in the sport because of his height and he even mocks his 1.64m frame in his celebrations by holding his hand to his head.

“His technique and characteristics allow him to overcome the height gap. He is the new Zola,” smiled Tosto ahead of the crunch relegation dogfight with Cagliari.

“Winning in Sardinia would be very important, but clearly not at all easy. We will try to get a positive result so that we can play our cards until the end of the season.

“I think that upon reaching 38 points a club is 95 per cent safe, so with two wins and two draws we could achieve another season in Serie A.

“This year the fight to avoid relegation is particularly tough and everyone has to battle until the last second of the final game.”
