Juventus forward Mirko Vucinic has revealed he understands the fans’ anger at Roma coach Zdenek Zeman.
Zeman upset the Juve faithful with his doping accusations made against the club in the 1990s.
He further angered the club’s fans again recently with his comments that Antonio Conte should not be allowed to train Juventus during his one-year ban.
“I would jeer Zeman as well if I were a Juventus fan,” Vucinic told La Stampa.
“However, I am a player and I will shake his hand. I owe him a lot. I have a very positive memory of Zeman. I scored 19 league goals under him.
”He taught me a lot when he was my coach, but he’s not the only coach who has helped me. I have grown a lot over the years.”
Vucinic also worked under Zeman at Lecce in 2004/05.
