Mattia Destro determined to achieve success with Roma

New Roma signing Mattia Destro is confident that he and his teammates have the capability to win something major this season.

Destro joined the Rome-based outfit from Siena this summer before being reportedly courted by Genoa and Juventus as well.

The 21-year-old is looking forward to his adventure with the Lupi and is confident that they can challenge for top honours.

"We will certainly have a great season," Destro told Roma Channel. "If we are in good shape in February and March, then why not challenge for something?

"I always said I am ready to play wherever the coach wants me to. I want to do really well and score more than I did last season. After all, it's easier to score goals with (Zdenek) Zeman.

"The Giallorossi have a wonderful group of players and I was given a warm welcome. There are many youngsters here, but it's the right mix with experienced elements."

Roma finished seventh in Serie A last season under Luis Enrique, who was replaced by Zema this summer.
