The now ex-girlfriend of the Italian national team defender revealed the end of their relationship and then continued: “I wish him all the best at Arsenal”. Cold shower for Juve?
Two news in one go, one definitely more important at least as far as football fans are concerned. It seems that Riccardo Calafiori will play in the Premier League next season with Arsenal, a transfer that had been talked about at length in recent days but which seemed to have run aground with Juventus continuing to closely monitor the situation.
The revelation of Benedetta Boeme
Two pieces of news, it was said, and both come from BeNedetta Boeme who on social media has decided to give some news to her followers and those of the Bologna defender: “Many of you have been asking me what’s been going on in my life lately so I’ve decided to clarify that Riccardo and I are no longer together, at least for now. I don’t know if we’ll get over it but I doubt it. I’ve needed some time to process what happened in the last 3-4 days and I still need some time.”.
A breakup that would also have arisen from a video that has been circulating on social media in recent days with Calafiori a little too “friendly”” with another girl: “Thank you to everyone who showed me the video that circulated this week. It was important for me to know the truth. I watched it many times, looking for a reason to forgive but I couldn’t. It was a difficult decision.”.
The announcement at Arsenal
In an era with so many market insiders, it could be the first time that an ex-girlfriend has given away news about a transfer, Boeme continues: “I wish him all the best at Arsenal, he has my full support”. An important revelation given that in recent days there had been talk of a blocked negotiation between the player and the Gunners and of a possible new entry from Juventus. Now, however, everything seems to be moving very quickly with Calafiori heading towards the Premier League while Bologna is preparing to cash in 50 million (but will have to send half of it to Basel) while newly single Riccardo will sign a contract worth 4 million a year until 2029.
The kiss after the match with Juventus
Benedetta Boeme had become a sort of social media “idol” last May 20th at the end of the match between Bologna and Juventus. The 27-year-old model practically burst onto the pitch and went to kiss her Riccardo who at that moment was busy with a television interview with Dazn. A declaration of love that seemed destined to last and that instead faded away in the space of a few months. And now the English Channel could also be involved.
