Diego nostalgic for Juve
Monday 11 October, 2010
Wolfsburg playmaker Diego insists he still hears from many of his former Juventus teammates and wishes them well this season.
The 25-year-old Brazilian was sold late in the transfer window this summer after just one year in Serie A, causing a stir in Turin.
Initially, Diego was bitter especially with Beppe Marotta after it seemed Juventus would keep faith in him having paid Werder Bremen €25m for his signature.
However, it now appears he has calmed down a bit and that his memories of Turin are still fond.
Speaking to Sky Italia, Diego said: “I still speak with many of the players. I always stay well informed.
“I speak with Felipe Melo, Amauri, Grosso and Sissoko. I have many friends at Juve and I wish the Bianconeri all the best.
“I did what I had to do well, but it didn't all depend on me, but also on those who were in command of the club.”
When asked if he can forget Italy, Diego said: “I can't do it. I was happy.”
Finally, he gave his two shillings on the title race in Serie A.
“Inter no longer seem to be that much stronger than the others. Juve can do very well. I don't know if they will win, but they certainly have the team to do very well.
“Right now I am thinking about my next objective. I am happy to be in Germany. It's the best League at the moment.
“I have the happiness of playing again, which is essential for a player. I hope to stay there for many years now,” he concluded.
