Sampdoria President Massimo Ferrero claims Palermo chief Maurizio Zamparini “made death threats” over Edgar Barreto.

Barreto is the Rosanero captain and his contract is due to expire at the end of the season, but so far he has refused to sign an extension and has therefore been linked to Samp.

“Zamparini insulted me, made death threats and now he is frankly going over the line,” Ferrero told Sky Sport Italia.

Sampdoria President Massimo Ferrero claims Palermo chief Maurizio Zamparini “made death threats” over Edgar Barreto.

“Zamparini insulted me, made death threats and now he is frankly going over the line,” Ferrero told Sky Sport Italia.

“I received a three-month ban for making a joke, so now I expect the justice system to intervene, because I am fed up with him.

“He gets publicity for himself by insulting me. Enough with the insults. I called him to ask about Barreto and he threatened to kill me!

“Zamparini needs to take a long hard look at himself and think of how many players he has taken away from others in an ungentlemanly manner.

“I called him and said there could be this negotiation with Barreto, but I respect old men and therefore he should stay calm.

“I get on with all Presidents who aren’t mean. Every now and then Zamparini loses his head.”
