Marek Hamsik’s lawyer has confirmed the Napoli midfielder will not face Fiorentina and that a deal with Dalian Yifang is still in the works.
Napoli made the shock announcement last night that Hamsik’s sale to Dalian had been ‘suspended’, which was followed by the Slovak not training on Thursday morning.
Fabio Marrucco told Radio CRC: “I saw Marek two days ago before this bomb exploded.
“He was ready to leave. For me the deal hasn’t closed, but my thought remains. ADL already gave a warning at his last Press conference.
“Yesterday’s tweet can be interpreted very extensively, so it’s not all closed yet. Perhaps the Chinese didn’t know they were dealing with a club whose accounts are in good standing and who can dictate their own rules.
“Marek’s request wasn’t to lose this opportunity and ADL had given his consent to the conditions that were established.
“Those conditions weren’t honoured and the President has every right to say ‘no’. Everything will be clarified next week.
“In the meantime he won’t face Fiorentina, but he’ll take a step back and there won’t be any problems if the deal were to completely break down.
“The happiest people right now are his children. If Ancelotti gave his approval to the sales of Rog and Hamsik, it either signals the go-ahead to some important signings in the summer or that he was pressured by the board to free some slots in the squad.”
