Agent of Juventus defender Gonzalez hits out at Sampdoria coach Pirlo

The agent of Juventus defender Facundo Gonzalez has hit out at Sampdoria coach Andrea Pirlo.

Gonzalez is on-loan at Samp for the season, but has found himself frozen out so far this term.

Agent Martin Guastadisegno told TMW: “I'm very worried because Sampdoria didn't do what they promised. We had many teams in Serie A that wanted him, Sampdoria called us 50 times saying they wanted him to play and I'm really disappointed because I don't like being told one thing and then something else happening.

“I respect all the players, but I believe that Facundo deserves to play. Let's see what happens, Sampdoria were a choice made by speaking with the coach, with the director, and they promised him to play.

“I'm very keen and I want to see what will happen. Even Juventus are surprised, they expected a different amount of playing time."

He added, “Of course, 100% Juventus won't want him to stay there. I don't understand why they asked for a player so insistently and don't let him play. I spoke to Sampdoria ten days ago, they told me he's young and will play.

“But if it continues like this, he will come back to Juventus in December or maybe go elsewhere. I'm angry at the way things are going."
