AC Milan, Inter Milan and Juventus Tickets
An interesting development regarding Antonio Cassano’s future occurred just few hours after the tribunal decided that the player should stay in Sampdoria, according to Italian media the troubled player will sign with Ac Milan soon.
Although there hasn’t been any official announcement from all parties but the press believes Cassano has agreed terms with the Rossoneri and will soon leave the Blucechiarti and join the fashion capital side.
In a ruling that nobody expected a Serie A arbitration panel has ruled that Antonio Cassano has to remain a Sampdoria player after they stopped the club from tearing up his contract.
Sampdoria have been trying to get rid of Cassano for a couple of months since he insulted chairman Riccardo Garrone. A host of Serie A teams were lining up to sign Cassano once he was freed from his Sampdoria contract, but the panel’s ruling put an end to that idea.
The lack of appreciation from Italian teams towards the European League is pretty much becoming a fact lately especially after seeing the likes of Sampdoria and Juventus are finally out of the competition.
The Blucerchiati that needed a victory on their match last Wednesday against PSV Eindhoven suffered a 2-1 defeat in Luigi Ferraris, while the Bianconeri also shared the same fate with Sampd as they were held in a 1-1 draw albeit needing a win the secure qualification.
After their earlier planned strike was averted, Serie A players have once again stated that they intend to go on strike on the weekend of December 11th and 12th.
The strike will mainly be used to address disputes concerning player’s contracts. The Vice President of the players union confirmed the strike. The September strike was called off to allow for negotiations with the Italian Football Federation.
However, talks have hit a snag. Speaking to reporters Mr. Leonardo Grosso Vice President of the Associazione Calciatore Italiana (ACI) ( the players union) said that no common ground had been reached by the tow parties.
Italian giants Juventus bowed out of the Europa League after a 1-1 draw away to Lech Poznan. After failing to qualify for the Champions League this season, the Bianconeri were hoping to go one better in Europe’s second tier club tournament.
If it isn’t bad enough that Juventus lost to a little known Polish team, the Bianconeri’s chances of winning some silverware this season just got slimmer after their shock elimination.
Juve coach Luigi Del Neri regreted the many chances his side failed to convert.
“It was not a regular match, but we deserved to win,”
Antonio Cassano days as a Sampdoria player could just last in a few weeks time especially when the club’s demand of terminating his contact came true, this condition gives the player every reason to start looking for a new place in January.
After series of media speculation, Cassano himself has finally hinted at the possibility of his future naming few cities that he’s considering to be his next destination albeit he’s determined in staying in Genoa.
Two Serie A giants, Ac Milan and Juventus failed to continue their positive results last weekend as both were held by their respective opponents in the early Serie A week 14 fixtures last Saturday.
The Rossoneri that have been collecting four straight victories were very unlucky not to take away all three points against home team Sampdoria, while Juventus have to settle for a 1-1 draw against their bitter rival, Fiorentina in Turin.
Antonio Cassano’s recent row with his club Sampdoria left the door opens for other clubs to acquire his service next January, among some teams that have been linked with the Italian international it seems that Fiorentina can be leave out from the list.
The Florence club that previously being placed as one of the contenders to snatch the controversial player, have rejected the rumors stating that at this moment they don’t need the ex-Roma player on their squad.
Well, despite his passionate apology Sampdoria have given their top striker Antonio Cassano the cold shoulder. Turning a blind eye to Cassano’s pleas, the club’s latest actions reveal that they are not ready to accept such errant behaviour within their ranks.
A statement released by the club read:
“No reaction from the part of the club.”
This was as reported by La Republicca. It is becoming very apparent that the club’s initial demands of terminating Cassano’s contract could happen.
First it was Fiorentina’s Adrian Mutu who was forced to apologize after his late night altercations with a waiter now Sampdoria’s Antonio Cassano has done the same offering club president Riccardo Garrone an apology after their burst up left Cassano’s future with club in doubt.
Sampdoria had already considered terminating Cassano’s contract after the pair were invovled in a heated exchange at the club’s training grounds. The genesis of the argument arose when Cassano refused to attend an award ceremony for the club.
However, speaking to the press, Cassano blamed his actions on the stress from his personal life.
