In an interview with weekly magazine, Grazia, Italian footballer Rino Gattuso has said that he doesn’t consider himself an Italian sex symbol, even though a recent survey reveals that Italian women think he is.
The interview with Gattuso has him quoted as saying: “I’m embarrassed to be considered a sex symbol.
 I’m not a vain type, I don’t take care of my ‘look’.
 Many guys do their eyebrows, like women.
 I don’t put cream on my face, I bite my fingernails, I don’t do anything to change my look.
 I’m rough.
”At this point, with Beckham fever gripping Italy, a comparison must be made with Gattuso’s new team mate.
 In responding to the question as to whether he is anti-Beckham, Gattuso says:“Now that he’s playing here, I look at him and I think he’s a good looking guy.
 I look at Nesta and think he’s a good looking guy.
 And Maldini too.
 Then I look at myself in the mirror and I certainly don’t think ‘hey, what a good looking guy’.
 I’m not blind.
”Gattuso may not be a sex symbol, but he’s definitely a nice guy! We’ll leave this one up to the ladies.
