Defender of the Juventus team Giorgio Chiellini did not spare bitter words for his former teammates. The Italian is preparing to reveal this in his future autobiographical book, excerpts of which were quoted by "La Reppublica". "Striker Mario Balotelli is a negative person who does not respect the team at all. In the 2013 Confederations Cup, he completely failed to help the national team in the match against Brazilians and deserved a hit. Some think that Mario is among the five best players in the world, but I never thought he could break into the top ten or twenty," Chiellini is quoted as saying. The defender went even further attacking midfielder Felipe Melo, with whom he had played at Juventus. "Brazilian is even worse. He is one of the worst. I cannot stand disrespectful people who are always around. With him, you always had to fight. I told the coaches: 'Melo is a rotten apple.'" According to the Italian, he really doesn't like one club. "I hate Milan's Inter, like Michael Jordan hates Detroit Pistons. Sporting hatred is simply necessary in football."
