Zambrotta: I can achieve incredible thingsNew Barcelona signing Gianluca Zambrotta has talked about his move to the European Champions for the first time, and admitted that he was looking forward to his new adventure.
Speaking to the Barcelona website, he said: “I felt happy in Turin and spent seven great years there,”
“I am sure I will miss some things about it, because I matured as a person there and won my first titles.
“But I have decided that the time has come to turn the page and join a great team and move to a city by the sea. I hope it all goes well."
"I am very happy to become an FC Barcelona player,”
“I have come to a big club that can achieve incredible things. Now a new adventure starts and I am looking forward to it.
"Barca is one of the strongest teams in the world and that is why I chose to come. Apart from the city, the people, the players, the Coach, everything together led to me to take this step.
"Barca have played the most spectacular football in the world in recent years. It is a pleasure to form part of a group including such stars as Ronaldinho, Deco, Messi, Eto'o, Puyol and all the others."
When asked about his new coach Frank Rijkaard he said: "We spoke on the phone and he congratulated me on winning the World Cup. Then he rang me just before I signed for Barcelona. And he is well aware of all the good work I have done over the last few years.
"My role? I don't know yet. At Juve I have played left-back in recent years, but I have played more on the right for Italy.
“Now it is up to the boss to decide where I play, but I won't be causing any problems."
