William Troost-Ekong wants to see Udinese have a good start to the new Serie A season which kicks off on September 19.
The Little Zebras finished in 13th place last season, 10 points clear of the relegation zone, winning three of their last four matches which included a 2-1 win at home to champions Juventus.
Pre-season had been going well for them with victories against L.R Vicenza and Legnago Salus until it was halted with a 1-0 loss by Venezia. Troost-Ekong is unfazed by the defeat but is rather focused on getting more minutes and being fit and ready to go when Luca Gotti’s side tackle Hellas Verona in the season opener at Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi on September 27.
