Zeman blasts Juventus for letting Immobile leave Italy

Straight-shooting Cagliari coach Zdenek Zeman has rapped Juventus for allowing Ciro Immobile to leave Serie A.

The former Juve striker joined Borussia Dortmund from Torino.

Zeman said: "Italian football cannot afford the best players because of economic problems and the mistakes made in the past. Before you could say Serie A brought in three foreigners, but they'd be of real quality. Now they bring in 30 who don't make much difference.

"Immobile was wise to go to Germany, but more than that I am disappointed Juventus didn't keep him, considering he was Capocannoniere."
