It is impossible for him to avoid on the pitch, but Sebastian Giovinco is not one to try to draw attention to himself off it.
Part of the appeal of Toronto and MLS to the Italian is the relatively quiet life it affords him compared to Turin, where he is recognized by everyone and had long suffered under the heavy burden of being compared to Alessandro Del Piero while coming through the ranks at Juventus.
But while a perfect offseason for Giovinco might be something like Christmas with his family in Italy followed by a relaxing week or two at home in Toronto - or perhaps somewhere a little warmer - before training camp begins, this winter the spotlight has barely come off him.
