For me, it was Roberto Baggio, in 1994, that sparked my interest for Juventus. But I didn't become a hardcore fan until a couple of years later. I grew into it, gradually. The 1996 team was immense. Players such as Del Piero, Deschamps, Ravanelli and Vialli were fantastic to watch. Then Zidane came and took my breath away. I was hooked. I was Juve.
You could say that in the mid-90s, Juve "stole me away" from the team I was supposed to follow. My father is a die hard Leeds United fan and I was spoonfed all the Leeds-stuff since I was a little boy. I do adore that club, but it just wasn't meant to be. My heart was bianconero.
