Barcelona fullback Gianluca Zambrotta has again spoken out against Juventus fans who have branded him a 'traitor' over the way he left the club in the summer.
"I'm not a traitor, but I am happy in Barcelona. I'm Italian and the distance is not easy, but at the same time I'm a serious professional," said Zambrotta.
"I have decided to leave for many reasons. Spain is a new truth, I'm enthusiastic, even if the mentality is different, the football is different compared to ours.
"I'm not sorry for the choice. I always follow our championship through newspapers and the television. The tifosi say that I have betrayed them, but indeed it is the contrary because I have felt betrayed and disappointed by the old Bianconera leadership."
