Football: Del Piero dismisses Sydney exit talk

“Everything is clear for me and the club,” said the former Juventus forward.

TOKYO:
Alessandro Del Piero’s uncertain future in Australia could be close to being resolved, with the former Italy striker pledging his support for struggling Sydney FC.

“Everything is clear for me and the club,” said the former Juventus forward, who has struggled recently with a hamstring tweak. “We can do earlier than we think about the contract.


It’s not a stress here for me. I want to put all my knowledge and my heart into games.” Del Piero asserted his management team, including brother Stefano, were working hard on negotiating a second season at the A-League side.

“My brother talks about that. It’s his problem, not mine. I’ve spent a really good time here. At the moment the best thing for me, the club and for teammates and everyone here is to concentrate about the games. Not about other things. I’m really enjoying it here and plan on staying.”
