Steve Nash is a man of many passions and many talents. Throughout his NBA career, he has often pursued sideline interests beyond the game itself – whether it be in fashion, film, or business. Chief among his hobbies has always been soccer…er, football. On Tuesday, the two-time NBA MVP will have the chance to live out a childhood dream, as he has tryout (of sorts) with Inter Milan before the club opens play in the Guinness International Champions Cup tournament.
The tournament itself features eight club teams from around the world engaging in what are essentially meaningless ‘Friendly’ exhibition/publicity matches over next week. Nash’s involvement is expected to be brief – his tryout, or glorified workout really, takes place this afternoon in New Jersey two days before Inter plays its first match in the event in Indianapolis against Chelsea.
More details on Nash’s thoughts about the unlikely pairing are after the jump…
