ANTONIO CASSANO slammed Tottenham chief Fabio Paratici for selling Joao Cancelo when he was at Juventus.
The Portuguese international, 28, was bought by Manchester City in 2019.
And he has gone from strength to strength under Pep Guardiola as the Cityzens won the title last season.
Cassano believes Juventus made a terrible decision to let him leave.

“£40million? I wouldn’t have even sold him for £400m.

“It was sporting director Fabio Paratici who sold him.
“He doesn’t even know how he ended up at Tottenham.
“Selling Cancelo is spitting in football’s face.
“He’s a phenomenon, he would make a difference even playing as a striker.”

Paratici joined Spurs in 2021 and played a role in bringing Antonio Conte to North London.
