It’s a nickname which has stuck so much that he’s often referred to in that way by the Italian media.
It all started when Brozovic posted an image of himself on social media with two females, one of whom was the footballer’s girlfriend. The Croatian was posing, and held his hand in his chin. Somehow as if to say: ‘Look at me, I’m the man’
For some reason, the Italian internet went mad for it. It grew so much that it was used for celebrating goals, and the entire Inter Milan team did it in the dressing room. It’s still going, have a search of #EpicBrozo on Twitter.
On page 4 of Today’s Gazzetta dello Sport is a claim that Epic Brozo could be leaving Inter.
With the Italian club wanting Axel Witsel, Inter could, perhaps mindlessly, ship Brozovic out to make way. Liverpool and Arsenal are said to be keen, with the London club having been linked for over a year, and the asking price is €25m.
That doesn’t sound like a bad deal.
