Juve fans hurl abuse at Canna
Saturday 18 July, 2009
Fabio Cannavaro was subjected to more protests, including chants and smoke bombs, during Juventus’ training session.
A section of the supporters are furious that he has returned three years after walking out in the midst of the Calciopoli scandal to join Real Madrid.
Around 100 ultras were at the Pinzolo training ground today and hurled insults at the World Cup winner.
There were also banners and smoke bombs thrown as part of the protest, including an ominous warning: ‘100 at Pinzolo, 10,000 at the stadium.’
This suggests there will be far greater shows of dissatisfaction when the Bianconeri play their first official pre-season friendlies.
The other fans in the stands of the training complex cheered Cannavaro and tried to silence the protestors, as a split is beginning to form among the Juventus crowd.
