Chiellini ties the knot

Italy look to retain their Series A crown and also challenge strongly for the Champions League crown this season

Giorgio Chiellini has put Italy’s World Cup disappointment and the biting scandal with Luis Suarez behind him by marrying partner Carolina Bonistalli.

The Juventus and Italy defender was right in the thick of the biting storm last month after Uruguay forward Suarez bit him during the final Group D game at the World Cup.

Suarez has since been handed a four month domestic ban and nine-match international suspension, while subsequently apologising to Chiellini through a statement via his official Twitter account.

The 29-year-old was quick to accept Suarez’s apology and emphasised he wanted to move on from the incident.

And he has certainly done that, marrying Bonistalli in his home country at the Montenero Sanctuary in Livorno.

His club side Juventus also passed on their congratulations to their star defender, posting on their official Instagram account the message: ‘Today we congratulate Giorgio Chiellini and Carolina Bonistalli on their marriage! Best wishes for every happiness from all Juventini!’

Chiellini will be hoping the good times continue as the Italian giants look to retain their Serie A crown and also challenge strongly for the Champions League crown this season.
