Fiorentina defender Martin Caceres has shared his delight at seeing a more competitive title race in Serie A this season after years of Juventus running away with the title.
“This season has been very exciting so far, especially due to the battle between Inter and Juventus at the top,” he began an interview with Turin newspaper Tuttosport, which appeared in today’s print edition.
“The performances of the Nerazzurri have been a big surprise to me and I say this even though I have worked with Antonio Conte and I know what he is capable of. It was beginning to get boring always seeing Juventus alone at the top of the table.”
The well travelled Uruguayan, who has represented 10 other clubs on top of his current employers, has made 11 appearances across all competitions this season. Although unable to score or assist, he has helped La Viola keep four clean sheets when he has played.
