Zambrotta Set For Shock Juve Return - Report
Barcelona star Gianluca Zambrotta could be set for a sensational transfer to former club Juventus, according to Spanish newspaper ‘Sport’.
The wing-back enjoyed a hugely successful seven seasons at Juventus before leaving the club for Barcelona following the Calciopoli crisis in the summer of 2006.
Less than two seasons later Zambrotta is desperate to return to Italy as his wife Valentina is homesick.
The Italian press has been virtually unanimous in agreeing that the 31-year-old would be moving to AC Milan, with the likes of Silvio Berlusconi and Adriano Galliani making numerous references to a summer transfer.
However, according to ‘Sport’ this morning, Juventus could hijack this deal, and seal a return to Turin for the Azzurri man.
If confirmed it would be a quite stunning turn of events, and it is unclear how many Juve fans would take to Zambrotta, following his decision to leave them when they were relegated to Serie B.
The former Bari man has starred 70 times for Italy, scoring twice. He played at the European Championships of 2000 and 2004, and the World Cups of 2002 and 2006, the latter of which he has a winners medal from.
