Lele Adani heaps on insults in Turin

Rarely when he was a footballer, and he was a footballer at a high level, has Lele Adani been the protagonist of fan chants with his own name. It rarely happens to defenders. On Thursday, however, it happened during Juventus-Sevilla, a Europa League semifinal first leg. And it must not have been pleasant to hear the Old Lady supporters insult him in unison.

A video is making the rounds on the web in which a very explicit chorus is raised from the Juventus curve towards the former Inter player, who has been doing commentary for years, first for Sky and then for Rai, not forgetting the adventure at Bobo TV with his friends Christian Vieri, Antonio Cassano and Nicola Ventola.

“Dusan Vlahovic and Angel Di Maria against Sevilla were absent: Juve cannot afford it. But the goal in the recovery means having great heart,” Adani said after the game.
