Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis Lambasts Ezequiel Lavezzi For Lateness
The Argentine is stranded in Argentina for the time being, and the club president is certainly not amused, especially as the Naples side have only just appointed a new trainer...
Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has lambasted Ezequiel Lavezzi after he failed to return from Argentina.
On Friday, Lavezzi claimed he lost his passport, preventing his return to Italy, meaning he will be late arriving back at the club.
The incident has not gone down well at Castelvolturno, and 'El Pocho' is now likely to miss the game against Bologna.
Though Lavezzi may have stayed on the ground, De Laurentiis' temper has taken flight.
"First it happened with [Jesus] Datolo, and now it's happened with Lavezzi. We are tired of having to deal with these Argentines who are not paying attention, and who are less than professional," blasted De Laurentiis to Il Corriere Dello Sport.
"Lavezzi was in the stands for Argentina, so he should have rushed back to get to know his new coach."
Reports suggest the club may fine the player upon his return.
