I was at the breakfast table at a hotel in Florence, idly flicking through The Gazzetta when I saw an article that mentioned him and Charlton. My wife translated it for me and I was delighted to find out we'd signed him. I've always wished I'd kept the paper, it's normally the sort of thing I'd do but didn't bother for some reason.
Loved having him play for us.

My missus couldn't believe the number of Italians who came up to us to say we'd just signed Di Canio. I couldn't believe the number of Italians who recognised my Charlton kit.3 -
