Noa Lang, the Dutchman, impressed in the match against Bologna, coming off the bench and contributing decisively. His ability to integrate quickly convinced the coach to consider him for the starting XI.
According to the pages of Corriere dello Sport, the odds for Lang to start in Florence are rising, a sign of growing consensus among experts.
Possible surprise from Neres
