Del Piero rejected Liverpool due to Heysel

[KingFemzee]

Alessandro Del Piero has claimed he rejected a move to Liverpool because of the 1985 Heysel tragedy.
Del Piero, 37, surprised many by joining Sydney FC at the close of the transfer window after finallyending a 19-year association with former club Juventus.
                                                          Liverpool reportedly put in a latebid for the striker after Brendan Rodgers was left short of attacking options following Andy Carroll's departure to WestHam on loan - something the club deny.
                                                          However, the former Italy international has again insisted he was given the chance to move to Merseyside but felt he could not move to Anfield, out of respect for the 39 Juventus fans who died when trouble flared at the 1985 European Cupfinal against Liverpool, played atthe Heysel Stadium in Brussels.

Liverpool will just bring down his career sef.If he wants to move to a good club, Liverpool is not what he should be thinking about

Liverpool is a Great club and he made his choice out of personal reasons.

Liverpoool is going down and the poor guy doesn't want to go down with them.
