Motta: 'I wanted to stay at Roma' Saturday 26 June, 2010
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Marco Motta is upset at the fact Udinese won the blind auction for his contract. “I always said I’d never want to leave Roma.”
The full-back was co-owned by the two clubs and a deal could not be reached for how to continue this arrangement.
It went to an auction with bids in sealed envelopes and Udinese offered €1.5m compared to the Giallorossi’s €1.3m.
“I had always said that I am incredibly happy in Rome and never wanted to leave this city,” he told Sky Sport Italia.
“I only asked that my contract continued to be shared between Roma and Udinese.
“The Friulani believed in me more with their offer and I thank them, but the bitterness and disappointment of leaving Roma remains.”
It is unlikely Motta will stay at Udinese, as it’s already reported they are in talks to sell him on to Juventus.
FI.
roma boy.
