Brescia president Gino Corioni has slammed Alessandro Diamanti over his three-match ban.

The former West Ham United midfielder was sent off during Sunday's 1-0 defeat at Lazio and his insults to the referee earned him a three-game suspension.

"I am very irritated by the behaviour of my player," slammed President Corioni.

"He cannot behave like this and I am very angry with him. Diamanti must understand he cannot afford this sort of attitude, otherwise he'll never become a great player.

"I hope this can at least serve as a lesson for him. He has got to grow up."
