The Italian international gave a good account of his talents at the Euros this June and is keen on joining Paris Saint-Germain for next season
At the Euros this June, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ignazio-Abate-c16673 brought the Palermo man to the limelight and he did not disappoint.
The Palermo-born defender played as a versatile full-back and as a centre-back throughout the tournament and demonstrated his ability to adapt to any defensive role he was put in. While going forward, the Italian was a great asset to the side.
Though Italy were humiliated in the final by eventual champions http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011, Balzaretti’s performances had done enough to raise his profile.
Last year, Paris Saint-Germain sporting director, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Leonardo-c22056 tried heaven and earth to bring the player to Ile. However, despite intense negotiations in the January transfer window, the 30-year-old chose to stay at the club.
The Azzurri international is now being linked with moves to AC Milan, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 and Juventus after a great season on a personal not. However, for Balzaretti, there are only two options. While talking to Corriere dello Sport, the player said that he has already spoken to Palermo president Zamparini and either he will stay at the club or join Paris Saint-Germain this summer.
“My future? I have already spoken with president Zamparini and I outlined my priorities: either I will stay at Palermo or I’ll be at PSG, there will be no other options.”
As a reminder, Balzaretti’s wife is a dancer and performs at the Ville Lumiere in Paris. In January, after failing to sign Balzaretti, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604. However, Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly impressed with the Italian’s performances and could approach him yet again.
Balzaretti is a left-back by trade and currently, Les Parisiens have the likes of Siaka Tiene, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sylvain-Armand-c34429 and Maxwell in that position. In order to make a move for the player, Leonardo will have to let go of at least one of the three players.
A move to PSG would be a great one for the player as he will have a chance to reunite with former Palermo teammates http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Salvatore-Sirigu-c32282.
