An official Congratulations to Fabio Cannavaro!
int: 
He very well deserved this award. He was an exemplary leader for the Azzurri throughout the World Cup and he also played very well for Juve and helped them win two scudetti. I am very happy for him and very proud. He is a great example and a role model for the children of Napoli. I also liked very much what he said in his acceptance speech, never forgetting Juve:

"Of course I will bring this trophy back to Madrid but I would also love to bring it to Turin," Cannavaro, who joined Real Madrid from Juventus in July, told a news conference.
Cannavaro said the collective performances of Juventus and Italy had played a key role in his success.
"It is thanks to them that I have been able to show my qualities on the pitch. So I want to thank my Juve team mates and all my colleagues from the Nazionale," he said.
Cannavaro, the sixth Real Madrid player to win the award, also had thoughts for Naples, the city were he was born and raised.
"I would like to show the trophy to Naples as it is a very special city, where I grew up. I used to play football in the streets of Naples," he said.
"I would love to show it to the kids who are in difficulty over there."

Guess France Football has no balls either then?
You said it! I was thinking the same thing a couple of weeks ago when these rumours started. Where was his "drug" scandal that happened to emerge while he was with Juventus? Conveniently, that was "found" right after he left Internazionale. Bullshit.
Real Madrid player, what a load of tosh...
