Bologna midfielder Godfred Donsah says he was saddened by Delio Rossi’s dismissal but backs his successor Roberto Donadoni to improve the club’s fortunes.

Donsah was signed by Rossi in the summer but was hit with news of his sack on Wednesday ten matches into the Serie A season.

“I felt sad and shocked because he was doing everything possible but the result was not coming as it should be but in all he is a class coach,” Donsah exclusively said in an interview.
The 18-year-old was present on Thursday when they trained for the first time under new Donadoni.

Donsah wants his teammates to give the former Italy national team coach all the support to reverse the club’s slide.

“Without us he can’t and without him we can’t so we all need to collaborate in order to be victorious at the end of the season,” he added.

Donsah has been restricted to only four league appearances this term due to injuries.
