The eternal defender of Juventus, Giorgio Chiellini, he talked about his ex-partner Arturo vidal and the problems that the national has had with alcohol during his career.
“The footballer is not a devil or a saint. The distinction to be made is between true and false. Somebody like Vidal sometimes went out and drank more than necessary. Everybody knows. It can be said that alcohol was a bit of a weak point ”, he launched.
“This is why the champion or the person that he is (Arturo) is not discussed. Weakness is part of human nature and the consequences that this can have for the group count, ”he added.
“The great Arturo didn’t show up for training a couple of times a year, or sometimes he was quite happy, so to speak. He has not been able to overcome it and I think it has become a strength for him, “he added.
The defender also related a difficult episode that Vidal starred in on a tour with Juventus, in the United States.
“I still remember a tour of the United States, the night of the last game before I was released. The next day Arturo was nowhere to be seen. I was in bed and they had to remove him by force ”, said in conversation with SOS Fanta
“That day we were trying new clothes for training, we were all dressed in black and it was 40 ° C. Conte could not wait for Vidal to surrender to remove him from the team and give him an exemplary punishment, ”he revealed.
“But instead, after ten minutes when Vidal seemed drunk and barely saw the ball pass, at the end of training he ran like crazy and took his teammates 20 meters ahead on every spike,” he said.
“What can you say to such a person, that in addition to bringing joy to the group is he a leader, a fighter and a great champion? ”, Chiellini closed.
Point out that the player is writing a book where he will delve into those anecdotes and other situations that he has experienced during his career.
