“We have also only learned of Luca Pellegrini’s exclusion from the list just now from the press. Given that there has been some purely invented news from some press organisations, I categorically exclude the possibility that the decision was taken for disciplinary reasons,” agent Enzo Raiola said in a statement.
“Luca has always been an exemplary professional and is always available to the first team group. The exclusion for the game away against Cagliari was due to a physical problem he encountered a few days before the squad announcement.
“We will ask for clarification from the club through the appropriate channels.”
