Pirlo: ‘I didn’t betray Milan to go to Juventus, I cried until the last minute’

His move from Milan to Juventus in 2011 is a special chapter not only in Andrea Pirlo’s career but also in the life of Andrea Pirlo, as the Italian tells in an interview that he didn’t leave the Rossoneri for money.

Andrea Pirlo was one of the main contributors to Milan’s excellence from 2001 to 2011, where he was there (among other things, attending three Champions League finals and winning the prestigious trophy in 2003 and 2007), but in the summer of 2011 he attended the big decision to leave the Rossoneri and join an ‘enemy’: Juventus.

This decision had embittered many Devils friends and the current coach of Fatih Karagumruk did not forget this time and referred to it in an interview and revealed unknown aspects of the case.

“Milan only wanted to sign me for a year, like Ambrosini, Nesta and Gattuso. I thought I deserved more.”

It bothers me to be seen as a traitor, I cried a lot until the last moment because I would stay in Milan for the rest of my life.

I didn’t go for the money”stressed Pirlo, who didn’t hesitate to talk about the special relationship he developed at Juventus with current Tottenham manager Antonio Conte:

“The workouts he does are tough, but on the field you find them in front of you. He gives you advice and many solutions.

It is recalled that “Maestro” also had an excellent presence at Juventus, winning 7 national titles in his four seasons in Turin, the last leg of his career as a player being New York City, with whom he played from 2015 to 2017 ( at 38 he hung up his shoes).

Incredibly, Mourinho, he sang it to Kvaratshelias and was hugging and kissing him within 10 seconds

An incredible scene took place in the first 45 minutes of the Roma-Napoli game in which Jose Mourinho first theatrically cheered Kvaratshelias and then hugged and kissed him within ten seconds.

Incredible scene in Rome – Napoli where Jose Mourinho first chants Quaratschelia and then within ten seconds hugs, kisses and talks to him as if he were his father.

In the 37th minute of the game, the Georgian international earned a foul and a yellow card from his opponent, in a phase that took place in front of Mourinho, who insisted that there was not even a foul.

Afterwards, the Portuguese technician initially shouted at Kvaratshelias, telling him that he was just acting, but as he approached Georgianos, he hugged him, kissed him and began talking to him in a very calm tone while the two men found each other. A little later, the recording showed Mourinho having a very friendly chat with Osimen.
