New signing? Schelotto

Recommended Posts

Posted

Free agent Ezequiel Schelotto has said he is open to a move to Premier League side Leicester City.

Schelotto, 26, had his contract terminated by Inter Milan in the summer, after a prosed switch to Chievo broke down.

He asked to be released to allow him to find a new club even after the transfer window closed, and the Nerazzurri obliged.

Currently training alone, the former Italy international is waiting for the right offer to arrive, and he hopes it will come from England, where Leicester would be a preference.

"I'd like to play there and I'm ready to get back into action," he told La Gazzetta dello Sport. "I don't know what stage the negotiations are at with Leicester, but if [Esteban] Cambiasso can do well there, then I'm sure I can too.

"I would never have imagined I'd find myself without a club at the age of 26. Now I'm waiting for a gift -- a new club."

Schelotto admits that his career took a turn for the worse as soon as coach Andrea Stramaccioni left Inter. "He was a very important person for me," he said. "He wanted me to prove myself at the Nerazzurri and his departure was unlucky for me.

"I'd like to thank [Roberto] Mancini, who is a winner and had me training with the first team even if I did not figure in his plans. When [Walter] Mazzarri came, though, I had to leave. I respected his choices, but I would have liked to have been given the opportunity that he gave to many other players."

The Argentina-born winger has made a total of 152 appearances in Serie A, 29 of which came for Chievo last season. A return to Verona broke down just before the transfer deadline, when he instead asked to be released from his contract with Inter.

I don't know what stage the negotiations are at with Leicester,

Love it, the guy is just talking to the press about wanting to come here and hasn't bothered to check if there's been any communication between his agent and the club.
