'There are always idiots out there' - Bonucci shrugs off San Siro fans

The Italy defender received a cold reception from the San Siro crowd as a response to his move back to Juventus from AC Milan

Italy defender Leonardo Bonucci has called fans at San Siro who booed him in a match against Portugal on Saturday “idiots.”

Bonucci spent the 2017-18 season at Milan after a high-profile move from Serie A champions Juventus that summer.

However Bonucci ended up back at Juventus after just one season, rejoining the Old Lady this past summer in a swap deal for Mattia Caldara, and has since spoken of his happiness to be back in Turin.
