Belardi: 'Amauri Will Be Better And More Loyal Than Ibra'


Belardi: 'Amauri Will Be Better And More Loyal Than Ibra'

Buffon’s understudy is sure of the Brazilian striker's quality with the season ahead in mind.

The five goals scored by Amauri in a friendly match yesterday have the Juve fans licking their lips.

Emanuele Belardi is one of those relishing the Brazilian striker playing for them.

"He has the right mix of talent and raw athletic power," he said,

The impressive display in the 40 minutes it took him to tear Mezzocorona apart has excited the keeper, who is perhaps feeling fortunate that he is on the same team as the deadly centre forward.

Belardi went on to make comparisons with a former Juventus striker, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, and believes that the talented former Palermo man will be an important element for the bianconeri this season.

“I think that he will become an even better player then Zlatan Ibrahimovic, and above everything be more loyal [than the Swede],” he concluded, making it amply clear what his thoughts were.

With such high expectations, it will be interesting to follow the Amauri’s progress with the ‘Old Lady’ this season. It will also be his first appearance in the Champions League.
