"I didn't know their goalkeeper before this, but if I was Roberto Mancini, I'd think about him," noted Como coach Fabregas to DAZN Italia after the game.
A product of the Frosinone youth academy, he celebrated his 22ndbirthday in June and is in the Italy Under-21 squad for the upcoming European Championship qualifiers against Armenia on October 1 and Poland on October 5.
Before setting off to begin work at the Coverciano training ground, Palmisani was rewarded with a new and improved contract with Frosinone.
It will now run to June 2031.

He was one of the key figures behind their promotion from Serie B last season, keeping 15 clean sheets and parrying 80 per cents of the efforts on target.
According to Tuttomercatoweb , Juventus had been in talks to buy Palmisani this summer for just €8m, but opted to look elsewhere instead.
His value has now easily tripled thanks to these Serie A performances with Frosinone.
