LOYAL FOOTBALLERS TO THE CLUB.

Every year when the season ends three clubs in all countries get demoted ,and three clubs get promoted. At a time like this there are an exodus of players,who join clubs in the top level.
But at times we do get players who remain loyal to the club and even big clubs have failed to get them in the big teams . Here are a few of them
1 FRANSISCO MIGUEL NARVAEZ MACHON. Or better known and loved at ATLETICO MADRID as simply KIKO . He played from 1993 to 2001 at the club . But when the club was relegated,in the year 2000 he stayed with the club,without a salary and brought it to the top level the following year.
2 GABRIEL BATISTUTA the Argentinan is another famous footballer. He played his club football for mannny years at Florence ITALY for the club FIORENTINA. But when th club was demoted in the year 1993. Batistuta stayed on and the following year Florientina were back in SIERA . So touched were the people of FLORENCE in gratitude they made a life size bronze statue of GABRIEL BATISTUTA in the city center.
3&4 There are two very famous and highly paid fooballers who refused to leave JUVENTUS in ITALY when they were demoted in the year 2005 ,2006 for getting involved in a shameful scandal . There were many footballers who left Juventus for INTERMILAN and other clubs.
But the loyal pair stayed on , they were DAVID TRZEGUET and PAVEL NEDVED. PLEASE note Pavel Nedved was brought from LASSIO for 41, million dollars a record. IF he left the line would be long to buy him. Sorry it was 41 million euros,not dollars.
