Claudio Marchisio has 'no regrets' over his Juventus exit | OneFootball

The veteran midfielder, who had spent over 20 years with the Bianconeri, left Turin during the transfer window to sign for Russian side Zenit St Petersburg.

But Stefano Marchisio, Claudio’s father and representative, has insisted that there are no hard feelings towards the Old Lady.

“My son and I remain the first supporters of Juventus, we do not lose a game,” he told Tuttosport.

“We hope to celebrate the Champions League as in 1996: by fans. Claudio, then, has many friends in the locker room: with the old guard is in constant contact, especially with Barzagli.

“There are no regrets about how things went. Three years ago Claudio could have gone elsewhere to earn more: in 2017 he said no to Milan that offered him a double salary because his desire was to close his career in Juventus, the team of his heart.

“Things change in football: I understand the Juventus management’s decision to rejuvenate the squad. A bit ‘of nostalgia there is from Claudio, was still at Juventus probably would be the happiest man on earth. But we turned the page and Claudio is very happy with his new life.”
