He could have been the left outside player Udinese was missing since Lazio had offered him to the bianconeri, along with Toma Basic who was not of interest to the friulani, however, as a possible quid pro quo for Martin Payero. In the end, nothing came of it: the bianconeri did not reinforce on the lanes and Luca Pellegrini remained in coach Baroni’s squad.
The problem is that the biancoleste coach absolutely “does not see” the left-back, who arrived two seasons ago from Juventus and is to be redeemed for 4 million euros, and has therefore excluded him from the official list for upcoming Serie A matches until the end of the season.
A hard blow for the youngster, who will therefore now only be able to take the field in Coppa Italia and Europa League matches. A situation that next summer could also reopen talks to bring the player, who grew up in Roma’s Youth Sector, to Friuli.
