True, but Alex has a very big fanbase. And most of them have been fallowing him for a long time now, I think there will be a lot of interested to read the book. I think it will be quite popular book.

Agreed.

Who says Zlatan's book was published in English, it was translated by some Milan fans, no?

Oh, right

 

[Fake Melo]

Zlatan's book was released in Swedish & Norwegian, but it will be released in English and other languages.

if I was DP's son I'd never go into football. Bar set too high

Anyway considering his huge fanbase I'm sure it'll be translated to English. Plus, with an imminent move to the states...

I kid.

I hate those autobiographies where people just talk about themselves.

Me too, I'm don't even think about reading them, but when it's Clapton and DP talking about themselfs... Well I might just listen a bit

It's like those history books that only talk about stuff that happened in the past

One statement can earn huge brownie points for the management, If Ale wants to stay, there's always a contract waiting. Or something along those lines. The fact that the club doesn't, shows that they are hesitant to give another year to Del Piero. Whatever the reason, the least the club can do is offer another contract and let Del Piero leave on his terms. If Del Piero doesn't want to stay, the fans will respect his decision. But if he is being nudged out, a lot of us will be infuriated. It's all romantic to say that it's best for him to leave on a high and all that, but if his desire is to keep playing, who are we do deny him of that happiness? He has shown time and again, that he will accept any role without complaining about it. He has always been a great influence in the dressing room. His mere presence offers a lot to the club. If nothing, it sells a lot of shirts. He doesn't even have a fat contract. If we can't offer the man who has carried us for 19 years another year, then this club loses a lot of respect. To stay or not is Del Piero's decision, but to offer a contract is the club's responsibility.

Well said Asif. No speculation, no conspiracy theory, this is as clear as daylight that the club would put an end to all these talks and speculations with offering a new contract if they didn't intend to force Ale out.
The ball would be in the player's court then, he could decline the offer if he wanted to get more playing time/was too eager to go to the US. It would be a nice gesture by the club and it was the player who was going to decide either to accept a bench role or leave. They know well that he would never decline the offer so they are finding their safe corner in what Alex had probably told them in private in the process of signing his current contract.

[ALC]

Yes, because that's what he's going to look like when he leaves

 

[king Ale]

It's the content that matters here, not the form.

You are a bit too young to understand it I'm afraid

Depressing.

 

[Ahmed]

aaaah, damn you Hoori.

 

[Klin]

Del Piero looks like a fisherman there. And yes, I'm still 22 Hoori.

Sydney in frame for Del Piero swansong

ITALIAN giants Juventus will head to Australia to play a one-off exhibition match against an A-League opponent in what is likely to be the last game for long-standing captain Alessandro del Piero.
