Cristiano Lucarelli.

[quote]A rarity in the football world in terms of club loyalty, he rejected several better-paying offers from other Italian and European clubs (among them a �3 million offer from FC Zenit Saint Petersburg in July 2006) to remain with Livorno. He was once quoted as saying, "Some football players pay a billion for a Ferrari or a yacht; with that money I bought myself Livorno�s shirt. That's all."


Of course, he's a communist.


But imagine how many shirts he could have bought with his millions?

What a numpty!
