Di Natale pens new deal Wednesday 11 July, 2007

Antonio Di Natale has signed a new contract with Udinese that will keep him at the Stadio Friuli until 2012.

The Bianconeri forward was recently linked with a move to Roma, but had reiterated that there was no truth in the rumours, as confirmed by his renewed agreement with the Zebrette.

“I signed a new deal on Tuesday, until 2012. This is a strong side, the President secured some excellent signings and chose a great Coach, now it is up to us,” the 29-year-old told the Press.

“I don’t want to issue any proclamation, there are no objectives, we only want to work,” added the striker.

“First we will need to secure safety, then maybe we can aim higher,” explained Toto, who is excited by the attacking options in Friuli after the arrival of Fabio Quagliarella.

“He has already proved that he is strong, but up-front there are also other players such as Antonio Floro Flores, Gyan Asamoah and Barreto – no one is a first-team regular.

“The important thing is to do well every Sunday and always do our best,” said the forward, who has become a regular in Coach Roberto Donadoni’s Italy squad alongside Quagliarella.

“Playing together could help us in view of the Nazionale, but we will have to give our all. This is an important year in view of the European Championship,” concluded Di Natale.
