Juventus goalkeeper Perin suffered a serious injury, but now he has successfully come out and performed steadily. At the Social Football Summit, he talked about his journey.

Pelin said: "I realized that the psychological factor is very important not only in sports competition, but also in daily life. Through my agent Lucci, I began to work with Nicoletta Romanazzi (psychiatrist) at a very delicate period, when I was thinking about giving up football due to multiple injuries, because I could no longer find it. "From that day on, I started on a new path. I learned to know myself, my needs, and how to find balance. Romanazzi often found the keys to performing at my best in sports and in life."

"When I was injured or when I felt I should. It's important to find balance and accept frustration and negative emotions when you're not picked. I've learned that all emotions can lead to positive outcomes when handled correctly, and it makes me so proud to see that now when I accept my mistakes and analyze them to find solutions."

" I'm my own biggest critic and my biggest fan. I dig deep to a level where I know myself better than anyone else, and when you know yourself so well, any criticism can become feedback."

"Before, I would be social when I was doing well. Posting pictures in the media, not if you perform poorly. Eventually, I realized that the comments no longer affected me. It gave me freedom and I was no longer affected by external factors. I often communicated with young teammates who were depressed by media comments and criticism, and I always tried to make them understand that I had earned this freedom through my own efforts. So happy."

"Words are magic and one of the problems in modern society is that we have become less empathetic, conversations have diminished, and unspoken words can cause friction and ultimately lead to alienation. It is now difficult to find the time and opportunity to communicate with teammates, even if it is just to have a cup of coffee together. There is a loss of dialogue and empathy between us."

"Tudor's sacking was a difficult moment because when the coach was replaced, we felt we were the first ones responsible because, although the coach was important, it was us who ended up playing. It was a failure, but we can regenerate from it and build something important, provided the foundation is solid. ."

"Spaletti is trying to bring us new technical concepts. He is very meticulous and can be said to be a perfectionist. From this point of view, we need such stimulation. On an emotional level, he is trying to make us understand that we are wearing this jersey because we deserve it, and we must work harder to prove it."
