"To all the athletes who will represent Italy I wish to honour our country, to win,"Juventus Forward Alessandro Del Piero
ItaliaAs usual, I am posting here the message from Juventus Forward Alessandro Del Piero directly from his Official Webste.
If your favorite players have a journal, let me know so I can post their messages too. The idea is to make this blog "Your Italian Soccer Serie A Home Blog Reference" where you can share your soccer passion by adding posts, articles, and commenting.

Olympic Games in Peking are only less month away from now, followed by Paraolympic Games in September, and my thought is going to all my friends, colleagues and Italian athletes who will participate in this event.Best wishes to Antonio Rossi, the Head of our Olympic Team, to Federica Pellegrini, Loris Facci, Luca Marin, Tania Cagnotto, Stefano Baldini, Giovanna Trillini, Diego Confalonieri and Margherita Grambassi.
Not to forget Fabrizio Macchi e Roberto La Barbera, athletes and personalities who have great will and fighting spirit to compete in Paraolimpyc Games; Gigi Casiraghi, all Italian National football Team and my team-mates Paolo De Ceglie, Claudio Marchisio and Sebastian Giovinco.
I wish to honour our country, to win and to communicate the values of sport to people.
I still remember the emotions of winter Olympic Games 2006 in Turin, the pride of carrying the olympic flame and the satisfaction of seeing the Italians having won 11 olympic medals after two enthusiastic week.
Good luck, guys! Have a nice journey and let the dreams come true!
Alessandro

That is so sweet of Alex. Anna,i know you will be happy to hear this. With the statement Del piero deserves a gold medal!
How thoughtful of him to think of his fellow athletes who will be carrying the ever so beautiful Italian flag and trying to fly it high by winning.
My favorite part which by now should come as no surprise to you guys is how he encourages the Olympic National team and specially his team mates in Juve. Shows Alex is paying close attention to the future of Juve. I also wish Paolo De Ceglie, Claudio Marchisio, Sebastian Giovinco, and all the Azzurrini players whom I absolutely adore all the best. Forza Azzurrini
