Lazio striker Keita Balde Diao has hit out against his club on social media after he failed to turn up to training. Keita believes a number of broken promises from Lazio president Claudio Lotito and Sporting Director Igli Tare have led to him taking action into his own hands.
Sharing his message on his Twitter account, the Spaniard did not hold back in his criticism of the Serie A club:
“Lazio friends, I have decided, in agreement with the club, to postpone my departure for the pre-season training camp. I love and respect this shirt, but I can no longer accept the way they’re treating me. Things have been promised but never delivered, postponed deadlines, changed programmes. I’ve spoken several times with the President [Claudio Lotito] and the [sporting] director [Igli Tare], I’ve given my point of view but no-one cares.”
The Italian club is in a state of turmoil at the moment after Marcelo Bielsa quit as manager after just two days claiming promises were not kept in regards to transfers. It looks like the same promises were given to Keita. The highly rated striker has been linked with Liverpool in recent weeks and calciomercato.com reported yesterday that the Reds have already looked at the player “several times” while Leicester City, Juventus, Inter Milan and Real Madrid are also in the frame for the player’s signature.
