"Unfortunately, the world of football really seems to be doing everything to get us used to the worst. The sexist words of Cristiano Giuntoli, Juventus' sporting director, would be uncommentable even in a tavern, let alone from the stage of the biggest Italian event where they talk about sport and sports culture. I think my distance from this way of expressing himself is clear, I would also like to see a stance from his club."
This was said by MP Mauro Berruto, national head of Sport of the Democratic Party, commenting on Giuntoli's "macho" statement to explain the wrong purchase of a footballer: "She is like a girlfriend - said the Juventus manager - when you take her home you understand that it is not good, that she does not wash, cook and iron".
