Gago agent blasts Real treatment

10 July 2012 04:21

Fernando Gago's agent has launched a scathing attack on Real Madrid over the club's treatment of the 26-year-old.

The Argentine midfielder's future is uncertain after Roma declined to use their option to buy the player outright after his season on loan at the Stadio Olimpico last term.

Having been deemed surplus to requirements by Real coach Jose Mourinho, Gago is assessing his options, and his representative Marcelo Lombilla has said a return to the Spanish capital is out of the question.

"He does not want to convince Mourinho, we know that he does not count on him," Lombilla told Deportes Cope.

"The worst thing that can happen in your life is going to a place where you are not wanted. In his last season at Madrid, it looked like he had scabies, and he had a hard time there.

"He does not want to go to Russia or Turkey, he is not going to play at just 'some' place."

"There was not an agreement with Roma, and we are now listening to other clubs, but we do not have any concrete offer yet."
