Juventus captain Manuel Locatelli has come under fire after a casual dinner with the Italian national team. Sport24.az, citing the Italian press, reports that the midfielder was at a restaurant in Florence, dining with national teammates, including Inter players Bastoni, Dimarco, Barella and Pio Esposito.
A photo taken during the meal quickly spread on social media and caused a sharp reaction from Turin club fans.
Most of the fans emphasized that such friendliness with arch-rivals is not correct, especially against the background of the tension between the teams in recent matches.
Opinions on social media were divided. Along with those who condemned the Juventus captain, there were also those who supported him, writing: "Is friendship with Inter players a crime?"
