Baresi departure will not effect Fulham progress, says Finnan

STEVE FINNAN believes that the departure of Franco Baresi from Fulham will have no disruptive effect on the Cottagers’ Premiership campaign.

Baresi departure will not effect Fulham progress, says Finnan

Finnan, who missed the Republic of Ireland’s international friendly against Finland last night with an ankle injury stressed that the former AC Milan captain has had a minimal role to play with the club over the past few months.

“I cannot see his departure having any effect on us in the slightest. Obviously he is a legend in the game but I think a lot of people have misunderstood how much involvement he has had with the team since he arrived,” he said.
