The truths of Ange Capuozzo on his arrival in Toulouse
Young full-back Ange Capuozzo addressed via Rugbyrama to discuss his arrival in Toulouse.
He claims to have made the right decision by joining Stade-Toulousain.
According to him, this new experience will allow him to grow as the 2023 World Cup approaches.
“If I really have goals of participating in the World Cup and performing there, I might as well do things well. I think I made the very good decision by joining Toulouse because it will allow me to grow, to progress technically and physically and to be able to climb at a very high pace to prepare for very high level matches. I am convinced that I am in a good school.
He said he discussed his signing in Toulouse with the coach of Italy. Extract :
“We had mentioned it yes. I think that despite everything it is a club that aspires to confidence. He is in the position of the club which produces a lot of very high level days and makes his guys progress in a stable and healthy environment. I guess for a coach to have one of his players in a healthy environment is positive. Afterwards, there is the law of sport so we don’t know if we are going to play or not, but at least we are in this environment.
In the process, he indicates that he has integrated very well within the Toulouse group. Extract :
” Very well. The group lives very well and I have no worries about integration. I start from the principle that I have to respect the group since I am a player who arrives. For the moment, I feel very good and I feel that I am progressing, if only in the last two months that I have joined the team. I am very optimistic and I keep this flame that encourages me to go to training every day to insert my first score sheet.
Able to evolve both on the wing and at the back, Ange Capuozzo explains that he does not give importance to the number he wears on his back. Extract :
“I think we have a game system where you can have a number on your back but not ask for the role that goes with it. We work on it in training and, without going into detail, which I have in my back on the 11th, 15th or 14th, the but of the game remains that I bring to the team with my qualities. So it’s a possibility that I’m moved to the wing but I couldn’t say until the coaches make their decision.
