Giuseppe Rossi | The Time I got BITTEN by A Lion on Manchester United’s Pre-Season Tour…
This week on the Fozcast, the lads are in New York to sit down with former Manchester United, Villarreal, and Fiorentina forward - the one and only Giuseppe Rossi! 🇮🇹
We look back on his incredible career, which saw him play at the highest level across Europe before retiring just two years ago at the age of 36.
Giuseppe shares amazing stories from his time at Manchester United, including what it was like to train and play alongside legends such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney, Roy Keane, Ryan Giggs, and Paul Scholes - and yes, the list goes on! 👀
He also tells the unbelievable story of how he was bitten by a lion on a United pre-season tour 🦁 and opens up about his decision to leave the club, including how Sir Alex Ferguson treated him as a young player breaking through.
Finally, Giuseppe talks about life after football and his new project - helping to bring back the historic New York Cosmos, which is being renamed to Cosmos, to the leagues.
A brilliant episode full of stories, nostalgia, and insight from one of the most talented forwards of his generation.
