The Argentine international has said that he came to the club to win titles and claimed that he is relishing the idea of playing alongside Zlatan Ibrahimovic
Argentine international, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Thiago-Silva-c34903 from AC Milan.
However, Lavezzi is not one to fume at becoming inconspicuous. Instead, the striker is one of those rare breed of footballers who prefer the quieter side of life and has no regrets of joining http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Leonardo-c22056 and co.
While talking to the media, the 27-year-old said that signing for the capital club presents him with a wonderful challenge and he has come to PSG to win titles which include the Champions League.
“This is a club where I came today to win titles. That’s the short-term project: to win major trophies, including the Champions League.
Initially, it was English Premier League side Manchester City, who were leading the race to sign Lavezzi. However, the player chose to turn down the English champions in favour of a move to Parc des Princes.
Lavezzi says that for life outside football, Manchester can never compare to Paris – something that’s becoming much-publicised in recent times.
“For life outside football, I think Manchester has nothing to do with Paris. I’m already well established here, in a house in Neuilly-sur-Seine.”
Initially, Lavezzi started out as a right-sided winger. However, in the final few stages of the Serie A campaign, the Argentine played down the left flank and that’s where he is likely to play for PSG. However, Lavezzi is not bothered about his position as he feels that he always gets the freedom to play where he wants to.
Finally, the striker c*m winger spoke about his relationship with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Zlatan-Ibrahimovic-c38029. Lavezzi says that the Swede likes to have the ball in his feet and revels in space.
“Somewhere, our relationship is instinctive. This is the kind of teammate who helps you play. But he’s like me, he must think about adapting with those who have played here before us.”
On Saturday, PSG play Lorient in the first match of the 2012/2013 campaign and it would be interesting to see how the duo combines.
