Toni: ‘I almost came to blows with Van Gaal at Bayern’
“My time at Bayern was the best of my career, apart when I won the World Cup in 2006. The most important goal I scored was the 2-0 against Ukraine in the 2006 World Cup quarter finals.”
“I am still excited when I think about celebrations for the Bundesliga victory, that was awkward. Munich is a great city, probably the most Italian among German cities, when I go there I always feet at home.”
“I was not in sync with Van Gaal though. We almost came to blows.”
“I am connected by a strong friendship with Dario Dainelli, Giampaolo Pazzini and Franck Ribery. I have no regrets, I’d make the same choices, otherwise I wouldn’t have gone so far.”
“I have to thank my dad Giancarlo, my Mum Valeria and my wife Marta alongside our babies Bianca and Leonardo. I am not going to become a coach, I’d get old too fast. I could probably be covering a role inside Verona’s control room. I am going to talk with the president about it, I am in debt with this city.”
