italian fans2 All Roads Lead to Serie A

Maybe you haven’t noticed all the big name arrivals but lets put this into per­spec­tive, all roads are lead­ing to Rome or more accu­rately all roads are lead­ing to Serie A.

Look­ing at the num­bers while con­sult­ing trans­fer sites, more and more play­ers are being drawn to Serie A than those leav­ing to play out­side Italy.  In the past weeks Serie A has seen an influx of big names from both the EPL and La Liga includ­ing Math­ieu Flamini, Sul­ley Muntari, John Arne Riise, Olof Mel­berg, Gian­lucca Zam­brotta, Chris­t­ian Poulsen, and of course Ronaldinho. Going in the oppo­si­tion direc­tion are,  Valon Behrami, Tomas Ujfalusi, Maniche and  Ludovic Giuly.  

So what is the draw to Ital­ian Cal­cio,  money alone?  Surely it can’t be the only rea­son, here’s hop­ing you the tifosi (fans) can fill in the blanks. Tell us at Serie A Talk what you feel is most appeal­ing about play­ing in Italy by leav­ing your com­ments below.

This month’s Four­FourTwo mag­a­zine has a great arti­cle, La Dolce Vita (the Sweet Life). It cov­ers Brits Ian Rush, Gazza, Paul Ince and oth­ers who played in Italy dur­ing the last three decades so don’t miss it as it could pos­si­bly help you with answers.
