As training resumes at Spezia Calcio, here’s what Kaleb Jimenez—the Eagles’ second-to-last signing of the summer transfer window, who arrived on loan from Catania—had to say: “When a club like this calls you, there’s not much to think about. I liked the project, the city, the coach—in short, I’d heard nothing but positive things, and as soon as the opportunity arose, I accepted right away.
What Coach Turati demands is a very attacking style of play, where it’s important to put into practice what we’ve worked on in training, and I feel very comfortable with this approach because I can play in any midfield position and even as a winger if needed; I’ve fit in very well right from the start, both with my teammates and the coach, and I’m truly happy with my decision.
As for my physical condition, honestly, I feel great—I’d almost say it’s perfect—because I’d been playing right up until the last day of the transfer window before arriving here; of course, now I have to adapt and take in the coach’s instructions, but I’m ready and eager for this new adventure.
I think I’m a very down-to-earth guy who loves soccer—my one true passion and my focus 24/7; otherwise, I like to joke around, hang out with friends, and I’ve fit in well with the group right away.
I want to help the team, prove myself at such an important club, and give my all at every moment.
This is a young squad, but one that’s ready and united, and I think we have everything we need to do well; we’re ready to give it our all, taking it one game at a time—then we’ll see what happens day by day.
The number 10? It’s not easy to take on such a prestigious jersey at such an important club, but I’m ready; I want to make my contribution, and I like taking on responsibility.
I’ve already seen in the Cup how incredibly passionate the fans are, and we know just how much the match against Livorno means to them this Saturday, so I’m curious to see the Ferrovia stand as lively as I’ve seen in videos online, and I can’t wait to make my debut.
Favorite players? Besides Messi, I’d say Dybala, but also Pedri, because I follow Barcelona closely—they have a style of soccer that’s always really excited me."
