He deserves to be honest…
Antonio Cassanoformer Italian international, brilliant at Roma, says his time at Real Madrid in the latest episode of his podcast released this Tuesday, Long live football. Arrived at the White House for two somewhat difficult seasons (a total of 15 matches played for two goals) in the summer of 2005, he admits that his heart has always leaned towards Barça.
« I fell in love and still am in love with Barcelona »
During the 2001-2002 edition of the Champions League, AS Roma drew Barça, and the Romans managed a draw in Catalonia before winning 3-0 at home. It was during this trip that the former Italian international fell in love with the Catalan club: « I started to understand their philosophy when I was in Rome and we played against them. The first leg ended 1-1, with goals from Kluivert and Panucci. Then we won 3-0, with goals from Totti, Montella and Tommasi. That’s when I fell in love with them. »
Despite this statement, Cassano explains that this Barcelona passion could not be satisfied, because, at the time of his transfer to Spain, there were better people in his position among the Blaugrana : « At the time, they had Ronaldinho in my place, and Barça never came for me, they had the Golden Ball. » He adds that, even if the heart speaks, it is the brain and the conscience which decide : “Maybe I could have made more sacrifices for Barcelona… but the most important club in history called me with the Galacticos, and I regret nothing. »
