No ordinary player has the ability to spend 19 years in the shirts of Juve, and that is the case with ADP as well; and Bettor.com would look at his accomplishments.
While looking at the career of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alessandro-c4710 Del Piero, one cannot help but love his character and the way he has conducted himself is nothing short of exemplary. To say that he is an example for young players to follow would be an understatement to the commitment
and dedication with which the player has performed over the years. Few players align themselves with the history of the clubs that they have represented and as one cannot think about AC Milan without thinking of Paolo Maldini, you cannot think about Juventus
without remembering the mercurial, talented and charismatic http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alessandro-Del-Piero-c4726.
Born on the 9th of November in 1974, Del Piero was the son of an electrician and a house keeper, Gino and Bruna, respectively. He was born in the city of Conegliano, and started his youth career in San Vendemiano at the tender age of eight years
old. He later moved to Padova during his teens and it was during his teens that he got first action of Padova for whom he had 14 appearances, while scoring one goal. At the age of 18, he was snapped up by Juventus, who thought his talents would be of great
use to the company.  He made a number of appearances for the Juventus side during his early career, where he managed to score on five occasions during his 14 appearances for the club.
After that the player became a regular at the club and was the first names on the team sheet for many a season. Even though he maintained a frosty relationship with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabio-c13152 Capello, during his tenure at the club as the head coach, the player showed his class
whenever he was given the chance to play in the line up.
There is a lot that can be written about the style of play that is adopted by the Italian, however there is one thing that was constant in his play; he was always looking for ways to improve his style and ability. This hunger and desire was reflected on
the field of play as well, and he was not just a simple goal poaching attacker like most of the attackers in Italian football. He was far more intelligent, creative, visionary and a read the game beautifully.
He played behind the strikers and was never deployed as the lone striker. He was always used as a supporting striker, and mostly as a trequartista. His ability to carve out chances from nothing led to him being deployed on the flanks of a trident. While
not usually found in the positions of being in the goal poacher’s area, the Italian is the third in the all time Italian top scorers list with a mammoth 323 goals and he is only behind the likes of all time greats in Giuseppe Meazza who scored 338 goals and
Silvio Piola who scored 364 goals during their careers.
The legendary player has won each and every trophy there is to win including League Championships and winning the Champions League along with being the FIFA World Club Champions. He is an icon among icons, and a player that young footballers all around the
world aspire to be, regardless of the club and country they represent.
