Roma’s first summer signing is proving his worth and continues to demonstrate why The Special One insisted on bringing him to the Italian capital as soon as possible.

The shot-stopper is one of the leaders of the team and his experience does not go unnoticed in the national team: the 33-year-old has appeared in every game for Portugal between the September, October and November international breaks.

Mourinho has a strong bond with him, and values his qualities as a veteran. The Special One insists on Patricio being a key element for the success of the team going forward.
