10-07-2007 | Burdisso está en la mira de la Juventus
El apoderado del defensor convino que existe un interés concreto del equipo de Turín. En tanto, Camoranesi renovaría hasta el 2010 con la Vecchia Signora.
Nicolás Burdisso podría dejar el Inter y pasar a la Juventus, según revela La Gazzetta dello Sport. El club de Turín está a la búsqueda de un zaguero, tras haber renunciado a incorporar a Gabriel Milito, y todos los cañones apuntan al ex Boca.
Esta semana puede ser decisiva para el acuerdo con Burdisso, ya que el representante del jugador, Francisco Hidalgo, tiene previsto reunirse en Milán con los dirigentes del Inter para analizar la cuestión.
El apoderado de Burdisso convino que existe un interés concreto de Juventus, traducido por ahora solo en un “contacto” que será profundizado en los próximos días.

I haven’t had the opportunity to watch burdisso play much. Whats his playing style like pintadoazulblanco? Is he basically another zanetti? The channels that I watch does not show too much Serie A

No, Burdisso is a different kind of player. Burdisso has played as right back but it is not a position that suits him, he is more of a traditional central defender, strong with the marking, good in the air, quick getting to the ball, but as right back he is not good at making attacking runs and defending in that position because he does not have the mobility required.
Burdisso is a really good player though, he was outstanding against Paraguay.
The Serie A is one of the leagues I follow closely so I got to watch alot of Inter games last season.

Whats the whole deal with Juventus anyways? Didn’t they have a really great squad and then all of a sudden they were placed into Serie B?? Like I said I don’t get to watch much of Italian soccer at all so I am still a little confused????

Juventus was busted for bribing referees so they were relegated to second division.
