As debate rages over whether Luca Toni should keep his moustache, Gigi Buffon’s girlfriend reveals how Italy’s WAGs experience Euro 2008.
“The whole clan of wives and girlfriends will be in Vienna for the quarter-final with Spain,” explained model Alena Seredova.
“It’s the same group as the World Cup, as we are very superstitious. So it will be the partners of Camoranesi, Materazzi, Gattuso, but also new arrivals Borriello and Barzagli.”
Speaking of Borriello, Seredova was asked to cast a fashionista’s eye over the Azzurri squad.
“As a woman I must admit the two sexiest members of the Nazionale are on the bench Fabio Cannavaro and Marco Borriello,” she told the Alfonso Signorini Show.
“I am a huge fan and go to all the Italy games with my father. I get so emotional at every save Gigi makes.”
Although she is from the Czech Republic, Seredova became a firm fixture in the stands during the 2006 World Cup, wearing her boyfriend’s team jersey.
They plan to marry soon, having brought baby son Louis Thomas into the world at the end of last year.
Meanwhile there are other fashion debates raging in the Italian media, as Toni has been sporting a moustache during recent training sessions.
It might be a superstitious decision, as the Bayern Munich striker has missed a series of chances and the only time he did hit the back of the net against Romania it was incorrectly ruled offside.
Polls so far have come out firmly against the hirsute look.
