AC Milan fullback Zambrotta hopeful of World Cup place
AC Milan fullback Gianluca Zambrotta hopes to earn a place in Marcello Lippi's World Cup squad.
Zambrotta has struggled with injuries this season, making just 16 starting appearances in Serie A.
“Dear Marcello, actually no, that's too confidential,” Zambrotta joked on an Italian chat show. “Dear Mister, I am ready! Take me to the World Cup.”
Zambrotta then made one final request that could ultimately count against him.
“And if he scores 20 goals, could you also take Cassano,” he concluded.

Dear Gianluca, why?
mate, totally agree with u, he was the best left back or right back in world football back at Juve, went to Barca and came back a shadow of his former self. He is declining so rapidly that he might even be back at Bari, with all due respect.
Truth is, Zambrotta used to be an awesome player. He's lost most of it and today he is just average. He misplaces too many passes, not great with crosses, and is terrible at tackling and stopping attackers. It's sad watching a former great flounder the way he has. He's no Maldini, that's for sure.
