Il Principe; a man of character

By: j | May 30th, 2009

In a heartfelt open letter to the public, published on the club web-site, Diego Milito expresses his care for the people of Genova.

Obviously troubled by his departure to Inter Milan, the Argentine striker stressed his care for the fans and that “we will see each other again and that this isn’t a goodbye.” Throughout the honest letter, Il Principe expresses his love for the club and people and the values of the genoanità, which he will carry forward in his own family.

I hasten to call this a “well crafted” letter and only make note of this as I believe this is far from a “public relations” move. In an era where athletes move to the next club the moment the fund transfer is complete, this speaks volumes of Il Principe.

    Jeez, now I feel guilty he is coming to Inter. Plus, I kinda dont want him if he is going to be maudlin and walk around Milan thinking “well, it is ok, but it’s no Genoa.” I hate to think we are his second choice.
