“I’m fine here and I want to recoverBut if I ended up in this situation it’s just my fault. Outside of football I used to go to the wrong friends and I let myself go because I am too naive. But now I have to take a little personal selfishness, “said Puzone, who now is treated and cared for at Acerra.
Giuseppe Bruscolotti, another player who was part of the champion Napoli next to Diego, spoke of Pietro’s situation. “I saw him grow up, he is like a younger brother and I was very sad to see that he is in this bad situation. Unfortunately, mistakes are made in life, it can happen that everyone makes wrong decisions, and Pietro has had frequent friends who have damaged him “said the former defender. He added: “Pietro was a very respectful child and when he had inappropriate behaviors and I was forced to scold him, he spread his arms and hugged me.”
Raffaele Lettieri, mayor of Acerra (less than 60,000 inhabitants), had said that on more than one occasion they tried to hospitalize Puzone for his addictions, but they could never do so. Now it seems that The former champion realized that it is time to stop.
“I listened to the interview with Bruscolotti, and I thought it would be great to see him again, because he raised me from a young age and then when I joined the first team,” Pietro explained at La Radiazza. Bruscolotti also continued there, asking the former champions for more help: “In times of need, friends must go out, so soon We will try to create an opportunity to visit Pietro, perhaps with a group of former teammates. “
