Rick Karsdorp is fully expected to leave Roma during the January transfer window. The fullback has been publicly called out by manager Jose Mourinho, and asked to find another club as well, after being branded a ‘traitor’.
The defender did not join Roma after training resumed following the trouble with Mourinho. And now, his fractured relationship with the club will end in a month when the transfer window opens.
Rick Karsdorp to leave Roma after not showing up in training
‘It was a team that wanted to win against a tough opponent, I am sorry that the efforts of the team were betrayed by the attitude of one unprofessional player,’ Mourinho said at the time after the game against Sassuolo.
‘An unprofessional attitude that is not fair to his teammates, that is what disappoints me. A point away from home is still not a negative result and I am happy with the general attitude of my squad.’
It was claimed that Rick Karsdorp left the city after the bust-up with Mourinho. He was signed for €19 million in 2017, becoming one of Feyenoord’s most expensive sales ever and it seems that his time is now over for sure.
