The title of the Italy National Team will bring endless stories, from its players, the context, where they achieved it and what it means for a country used to being among the best in the world. Among the standouts are Leonardo Bonucci and Giorgio Chiellini, the central defenders who took over the position, not only in the azzurri. For many years, they were regulars at Juventus, which has changed in recent years.
Gone was that final lost in 2012, where the two became the starters, but Chiellini had to leave the field with only 21 minutes played, which would later end in disappointment and the crown of Spain.
And it is that with the azurri, both have played a total of 61 games, both being headlines, like the defenders, varying only the scheme from a line of three or four in the background.
Their history in Juvenrtus began at the wrong time, Chiellini arrived in the neighborhood in 2005, while Bonucci did so in 2010, becoming the regulars from now on. They were only separated for a year, it was in the 2017/2018 season, when Bonucci headed to Milan, being only for one year, returning in the summer of 2018 to Turin.
