To be on the front pages, Alessandro Del Piero is used to it. To be the star of a book, he will have to get used to this too. During these days "Semplicemente Del Piero", (Simply Del Piero), a book published by the photographer Gianni Giansanti in collaboration with Compaq, that relives Alex's last year and half (but there are also pictures from the past) with the help of plenty of photographs. Pictures that not only portray his life as a footballer (with Juventus and the National Team), but also during his free time, with his family, friends and teammates. A book, presented yesterday afternoon in Turin, of which Del Piero is said to be proud of, that has come out during one of his happiest moments of his career, three days after the Scudetto.

A few facts: The title? "It's Alex's idea, one day when we were driving around - answer's Gianni Giansanti. It covers perfectly the person who is very simple. Even if on the pitch he definitely doesn't do simple things". Which is Del Piero's favourite picture? "My mother took it and with my father and I".
