Cassano's last punchline against Lukaku!

Antonio Cassano, the former enfant terrible of Italian football, made a surprising statement about Romelu Lukaku.

Former Italian star Antonio Cassano criticized the level of Serie A. And more particularly that of Romelu Lukaku, his official whipping boy.

“I’m big and I could still play in Serie A”

Cassano believes that if Romelu Lukaku has impressed so much at Roma since the start of the season it is because the level of competition is very low in Italy today.

He declared on Bobo TV, the famous podcast of his friend Vieri: “In Italy, all four of us could still play, me, Bobo (Vieri), Lele (Adani) and Nicola (Ventola). I’m fat, Nicola has a limp, Bobo has implanted teeth, but we could still play. This is not a problem. This championship is fake, that’s why Lukaku is there…”

During his period, Cassano was one of the most prominent strikers in Serie A. However, unlike others, he failed to reach the threshold of 100 goals in the Italian elite. It stopped at 99 units.
