As famous [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] indo11.com mentioned, Hellas Verona midfielder Romulo’s agent, Adriano Di Vittorio, insists his client could have gone with the Italy Squad to the World Cup but the 27-year-old rejected the chance due to fitness problem.
“The tests with the other 30 players provisionally called up seemed to bode well, just as the pleasing and cordial welcome that he was given…” said Di Vittorio.
“A few hours before the final list of 23 was announced, he spoke to Coach Cesare Prandelli because unfortunately he was unable to definitively resolve the inflammation of the adductors in his thigh. Aware that Prandelli was ready to put him in the squad going to Brazil, Romulo proved once again what a great man he is by telling the Coach it wasn’t fair to be included when not 100 per cent fit.”
“He put honesty and fairness above his own personal interests to help the Nazionale and his teammates.”
