Andersen hopes Samp success can be springboard to Euro 2020

Joachim Andersen hopes success at Sampdoria will earn him recognition at international level as he eyes a place in the Denmark squad for the 2020 European Championships.

Having spending last year settling into his new surroundings, adjusting to life life in Serie A and learning the lingo, the Danish defender is confident he can kick on in the coming campaign.

“My best memory [from last year] was my Serie A debut against Udinese, but my first time in the starting XI against Atalanta was another really great moment for me.

“One of my goals is to play at the next European Championships. I think it’s realistic and that’s what I’m going for. I know that if I can have an important role here at Samp, it will come a bit more easily.”
