Over the past two seasons, Vitinha, the 25-year-old Paris Saint-Germain midfielder, has become the linchpin of the Parisian midfield. However, he still has areas for improvement, particularly his left foot. The Portuguese international spoke about this with A bola.
Vitinha: “It’s one of the things I need to improve”
“It’s something that obsesses me, Luis Enrique, day and night, trying to improve it. People have said my left foot is ‘functional’… That’s absurd. My left foot is practically useless. It’s really bad.
And it’s something I absolutely have to improve. It’s one of the things I need to improve: my left foot is really very bad. Very bad.
It’s not catastrophic, but compared to my right foot, it’s really very bad, and I could contribute so much more to my game if I could make better use of my left foot.”
Vitinha is already considered the best in his position. Obviously, he still has areas for improvement, but what he brings to PSG’s game is unparalleled. Nevertheless, all players strive to progress, and alongside Luis Enrique, who also pushes players in this direction, he can address these details.
At only 25 years old, Vitinha has significant room for improvement. Comparing his current level to that of two seasons ago is like night and day. There’s no doubt that in two or three years he will correct these few weaknesses and reach his peak.
