The agent of Fiorentina striker Adrian Mutu admits there's been a total breakdown between the player and club.
Mutu stormed out of training today without permission, so the club has announced it will take legal action at a federal and civil level for his 'insubordination.'
"There is a total breakdown between Mutu and Fiorentina," declared agent Giovanni Becali on Firenzeviola.it.
"The rumours that he was close to Cesena were unfounded. Mutu is wanted by several clubs in Italy and Europe, including Cesena.
"Fiorentina have given us the all-clear to seek another team, but not one in Italy. Now we want to clarify a few things and then see what could happen.
"I can certainly say that if there is not a clarification with Fiorentina, then on Friday we will call a Press conference to explain everything that happened recently, even those things that were not said.
"If he is not called up, then he will stay in the stands and Fiorentina will be forced to keep paying his wages until the end of his contract.
"The lad is calm and the situation does not worry me, but I wish to reiterate that there is a total breakdown between Fiorentina and Mutu."
