Trezeguet’s wife calling the shots

David Trezeguet admits he had an offer from Liverpool prior to making a move to Hercules.

The Frenchman joined Hercules on a free transfer this summer after canceling his contract at Juventus, but he also had other offers.

“Lazio and Liverpool were interested. But nothing happened. The English club waited to sort out the transfer of Mascherano before starting anything else.”

The fact that Trezeguet’s wife was from Alicante proved to be the main reason behind his transfer to Hercules.

“Anyway, after 10 years at Turin, above all I needed to find sun and sea again. And the fact that my wife is from the region also played a part in my decision.”
