Zambrotta Shrugs Off Insults

(Soccer365.com) - New Barcelona defender Gianluca Zambrotta has waved away taunts from Turin that he is a traitor for leaving relegated Juventus.

The world champion left for Nou Camp after the Bianconeri were penalized for their place in the Italian referee fixing scandal.

"People can think what they want," he told Gazzetta dello Sport. "Sincerely, I wouldn't have left had (the penalty drop) not have happened."

"I feel myself betrayed because it was me who entered the pitch with my teammates to win matches with our technical strengths," stated Zambrotta.

"I feel myself betrayed by the old management's behavior, because we entered the pitch clean."
