He had ended up in a storm, for the words released on Radio 24 on the coming out of the new Cagliari midfielder Jakub Jankto . Now Andrea Abodi , Minister of Sport, returns to the subject in an interview with La Stampa, where he rejects the accusations of homophobia: " It's absurd , I'm sorry that this is said about me, it's very far from my way of being" .
Then he justified his answer: "It was an unprepared question," he explains. «The answer has the immediacy of answers that require extreme synthesis, especially on the radio, when you have very little time available ».
Finally, he says he's ready to take a step towards Jankto : «I've already got in touch with Cagliari, but I'll also talk to the boy. I explained to the president of the club that I would like him to understand that not only is there maximum respect for him, but that it leaves me perplexed that a controversy is created on an issue on which I am linear and transparent. I hope for another thousand coming out ».
