Hellas Verona midfielder Emmanuel Agyemang-Badu says he is working very hard to rediscover his best form during a question and answer session in the mixed zone after their win over Genoa on Sunday.

Badu replaced Algerian midfielder Sofyan Amrabat in the 90th minute during the Gialloblu 2-1 victory against Genoa at the Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi on Sunday.

"Now I have to forget everything, work very hard to help the team," Badu indicated.
