Juventus legend, Leonardo Bonucci has come out to name his toughest opponent ever. He recently snubbed Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in favour of Duvan Zapata, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, Zapata was his nightmare on the football pitch, and he even found it hard to sleep at night ahead of games vs Atalanta.
Bonucci added that it was the striker’s physicality that made him absolutely unbearable to come up against.
His words, “The one that hit me the most and the one I had more fun with was Luis Suarez because he hit and got hit without any problem. My nightmare, who didn’t make me sleep at night, was Zapata. God, before games against his Atalanta side, I couldn’t sleep at night. His power and physicality made him my nightmare. Then, I was lucky enough to play against so many champions. [Didier] Drogba, Ronaldo, Messi, [Fernando] Torres, and I forget others, but it was too good.”
WOW.
