Calò's agent hits out at Mancini over Italy omission
Vincenzo Pisacane says the Frosinone midfielder has Italy's best numbers and fears his snub for the France and Belgium games sets a bad precedent.
The agent of Giacomo Calò, the Frosinone midfielder, has criticised Roberto Mancini for leaving him out of Italy's squad for the Nations League games against France and Belgium. Vincenzo Pisacane fears the decision could mean the death of meritocracy. According to Football Italia, the 29-year-old's representative argues that Calò currently has the best numbers of any midfielder in Italy.
Pisacane points out that Calò has five league goals this season and that no player in Serie A has created more chances. He also revealed that both the player and the club rejected an approach from Sampdoria during the summer.
The agent insists Calò is fully focused on Frosinone, who sit sixth in the table ahead of Juventus and Napoli, and on the upcoming game against Cagliari.
