An inexplicable exclusion from the national team. As Enzo Raiola commented harshly on the choice of Luciano Spalletti not to insert Giacomo Bonaventura among the thirty pre-summoned for the European Championships. During the interview given to Tuttosportthe agent also spoke about the market, returning to the courtship of Juventusupon input from Allegri, in January: “There was the possibility – confirmed Raiola – then we made a pact with Fiorentina to stay at least until the end of the season. We will meet again after the Conference League final and we will calmly decide the future.
I wish him a well-deserved European triumph.”
Bonaventura is however linked to the purple environment…
“Joe Barone passed away in recent months, an event that shook everyone. When Jack was on the national team in the USA, he stayed a few extra days there to commemorate a person he cared about a lot. You know, it was he who strongly wanted him to Florence”.
Was the non-switch to Juventus also due to the desire to play continuously?
“No, he would have been a starter at Juve too, I have no doubts about that.”
