Chiellini, 35, was more brutal when it came to assessing former Juve colleague Melo – the Brazilian midfielder who played for the Bianconeri from 2009 to 2011 before eventually joining Serie A rivals Inter.
Even worse was Felipe Melo: the worst of the worst. There was always a fight with him. I also told the managers: he s a rotten apple, Chiellini wrote.

He s won nothing at international level and saying things like this shows him to be unprofessional.
It shows a lack of respect and I won t say any more. Some things have to stay in the dressing room.
