Palermo captain Miccoli happy he turned down Birmingham City

Palermo skipper Fabrizio Miccoli has no regrets turning down Birmingham City last summer.

Miccoli has since been made club captain and says he's happy with his choice.

He said: "I feel important for Palermo and wear the captain's armband with pride. I have no intention of leaving, have always given my all and will continue to do so.

"President Maurizio Zamparini always put his faith in me. Our rapport is less that of employer and employee, more one of father and son. If I wanted to leave Palermo then I would've done it when Birmingham called in the summer."
