They called him “a colossus with a strong personality“But it couldn’t be otherwise. She comes from a family where her parents played high-performance sports. Her mother, Svetlana, played basketball and her father, Dan, played volleyball.
If Radu’s mother and sister were waiting for him at home in Turin, where they live with the young Romanian international, his father lived his emotions in Bucharest. He didn’t sleep much last night, but after such a debut he didn’t have much of a chance.
Journalist: How did you experience the moment when Radu entered the field?
Dan Dragusin: Hmm, I don’t know if it’s so easy to explain how a parent feels at a time like this. Words are few … All kinds of thoughts went through my head! The truth is that after the game I couldn’t sleep much. There were many congratulations, of course. We are happy for him, very happy!
Are you afraid that the euphoria of the moment will change Radu a bit?
What if I am afraid of it? No way! He is only 18 years old, but he is very mature. He knows it, he is aware that from now on he has gone to another level and an even greater responsibility is imposed. He is down to earth and willing to go to any lengths to confirm your confidence.
Yes, but like you said, he’s only 18 years old. Making your debut with Juventus and in the Champions League … Doesn’t it make you a little dizzy?
He wants the top, the top, and that cannot be done without work. Know that you are very self-critical, you know what to expect, what you have to do and you are very trainable. Naturally, I am his father and I can be accused of a dose of subjectivism. But he and I have other discussions because I also played sports and was a coach. His mother also played high-performance sports, growing up in a home where the rigors of sport were always present.

What was the first thought that crossed me the moment you saw him at the edge of the field, ready to enter?
Many, an avalanche! But at that moment I realized that on December 2, it had been exactly three years since I arrived in Turin, for the training week received through its manager, Florin Manea. Exactly three years!
It is obvious that everything depends only on him, and we can only support him, give him the necessary peace to advance to such a large club, a true industry. He was convinced of what Juventus Torino meant three years ago. I was impressed.
