Canna: I don't miss Italy
Azzurri captain Fabio Cannavaro has no nostalgia for his time in Serie A and no
intention of returning to the peninsula.

The former Juventus defender quit Italy for Real Madrid in the aftermath of the
Calciopoli scandal.

Despite regular rumours linking him with a return to his homeland, it seems that
the 34-year-old, who has just won La Liga, isn’t coming back.

“I don’t miss Italy at all,” he said in Vanity Fair. “I’m not thinking
about returning at the moment.

“I made a choice to play for a great club here in Spain and I have no
nostalgia for the past.

“I hardly watched any Italian football last year. Inter were so much better
than anyone else and the title was decided from day one.

“This year it is more pleasant with Napoli and Juve in Serie A, but
technically the level isn’t the same as it was pre-Calciopoli.”

Cannavaro is clearly still hurt by the events off the pitch that shook
Juventus’ players and fans.

“There is a lot of bitterness,” he admitted. “It was such suffering to see
the Bianconeri penalised like that.

“I was 32-years-old and I couldn’t have been playing below the top level
during the last few years of my career. Besides, Real are a team you cannot say
no to.”

Fabio concluded by discussing the possibility of joining brother Paolo at
Napoli.

“It would be difficult for Napoli to sign me,” he explained.

“They would have to wait for my contract with Real to expire because they
wouldn’t be able to pay a transfer fee for a 34-year-old.”
