Alessandro Nesta has responded to Matthijs de Ligt’s criticisms of Juventus. The the Dutch international who left for Bayern Munich recently spoke negatively about the intensity at the Italian top club in an interview and blamed his difficult start. of the Rekordmeister at. Nesta, one of the greatest players in Italian football history as a central defender, would have done things differently.

De Ligt had a difficult start at Bayern and could not immediately count on a base place. Trainer Julian Nagelsmann indicated that the Dutchman had difficulty with the intensity in the training, on which De Ligt pointed to his past at Juventus. “In Italy it’s more about tactics and systems,” said the mandekker. “There is less training on intensity, and especially there is less sprinting. That is why I had a hard time at Bayern in the beginning.”

De Ligt received support from England in the person of Dejan Kulusevski, but does not have to count on sympathy from Nesta. The former top defender believes De Ligt should have just gone to Bayern Munich without commenting on Juventus. “I would not have made such statements,” the 76-time international tells Corriere della Sera “Seventy million euros has been paid for you, Bayern Munich wanted him at all costs. You are injured for a long time and then you go to Bayern. Then just go there.”

The general problems at Juventus are something of recent years, Nesta believes. “It is not all Allegri’s fault. For years they have been taking one step forward and two steps back. There is a lack of a clear vision, even in the transfer market. There is no clarity.” Juventus has to settle for eighth place in the Serie A list. In the Champions League was lost to Paris Saint-Germain and Benfica (both 2-1). Only one of the last eight matches has been won and so the pressure is mounting on Massimiliano Allegri.
