[Saba Sports News] According to the latest news from Italian media, Serie A Juventus star Daniele Rugani had initially considered joining UAE league team Al Ain after receiving an invitation. However, Rugani ultimately decided to give up a high-value contract worth 12 million euros over three years after discussing it with his wife. The reason for his decision was that his wife did not want to go to the Middle East and preferred to stay in Europe. Rugani’s contract with Juventus expires in 2026. During his time at Juventus, Rugani experienced ups and downs. He had loan experiences and had relatively more playing opportunities in some seasons, contributing with goals. Although not a regular starter, he proved to be a reliable substitute. Besides Al Ain, Ajax from the Dutch Eredivisie also expressed strong interest in inviting Rugani, promising him a starting role. However, they proposed a loan deal with an option to buy Rugani permanently. Rugani’s wife, Michela Persico, is an Italian football journalist and is known as one of Italy’s most beautiful football reporters. She has a beautiful face, an attractive figure, and captivating blond hair, making her a dream girl for many fans.
