Lupatelli, also now goalkeeper coach with Italy's U16s, told Radio FirenzeViola: "He will bring points, he has already shown it in his performances.
"Then he brings experience to give to his teammates, but (Pietro) Terracciano is also well-versed, he did well. Fiorentina is in good hands.
"The hierarchies are dictated by the coaches, once only the first was the starter, in modern football and clubs like Fiorentina that play in Europe need two good goalkeepers. The second must be a starter to keep the team's level high."
