Fiorentina chief Corvino admits Giovinco admiration

Fiorentina sports chief Pantaleo Corvino admits he's a big fan of Juventus midfielder Sebastian Giovinco.

The youngster is on-loan at Empoli this season and Corvino says: "He reminds me of Rui Barros. He is part of the great heritage of Juve's coaching system. He's one of those not emerging because of his physical attributes, but his technical skills. Few have his dexterity and that makes him a predestined quality player."
