Giovinco The New Zidane - Furino
Former Juventus midfielder Giuseppe Furino believes Sebastian Giovinco can follow in the footsteps of Zinedine Zidane, Michel Platini, Alessandro Del Piero and Roberto Baggio to establish himself as a Bianconeri legend.
Giovinco has been the star of the show for Italy at the Olympics and many tip the Juventus starlet to go on and become one of the greatest players in football.
Furino, who made over 360 appearances for the club during the 1970’s and 80’s, believes the 21-year-old can emulate players of the great Juve teams of the past such as Zidane and Platini.
“Giovinco is the number 10 of the future. Sebastian can and has the right to succeed people like Platini, Baggio, Zidane and Del Piero,” Furino told Tuttosport.
“I have seen Giovinco play at the Olympics and he is unstoppable. People fear him and this means he is strong and it’s a great sign.
“Giovinco has the qualities to relive the times of the great Juve number 10’s because he plays like them and he has the talent.
“I really hope he gets a call up from Marcello Lippi when he returns from the Olympics. He (Lippi) should take Giovinco to the senior side.”
A Number of top teams have been trying to prize the Juve man away from Turin. Palermo tried to take him as part of the Amauri deal but the Bianconeri played hardball.
Reports in Italy suggest Arsene Wenger has shown an interest but it’s unlikely that the Old Lady will allow Giovinco to leave.
