Alejandro Gomez’s farewell seems to have been written by now. Today’s interview certainly did not put out the fire that burns under the ashes, also because Antonio Percassi decided not to expose himself after a month of controversy, hoped-for turnaround, requests for assignment and scuffles in the locker room, siding openly with the coach. One thing that Gomez had already fully understood a couple of weeks ago, with the release on social networks that had caused a great stir before the match against Juventus, a three-way meeting where big words had flown.
PAPU DOES NOT CHANGE ITSELF – How is it possible that everything has changed in a month? Gomez was the first to make a mistake, refusing to move to the right, Gasperini put fuel on the fire in the locker room and Papu himself then replied, demanding an apology that never came from the coach. A matter of principle. Two weeks ago, before the failure to call against Roma, the management was convinced to recover the relationship. The problem, net of the apologies, was also contractual: after Al Nassr there was a promise to renew until 2024, which then did not happen.
AGE, SALARY AND INTER – Gomez will soon turn 33, reaching 2024 would be an operation up to 36 and with a much higher salary than everyone else. No one is over 2 million, the Argentine yes. This is why anticipating a revolution is not such a problem. Atalanta loses the best player in recent years, but also the heaviest salary, closes a capital gain and will still ask for a donation from whoever arrives. Inter have reached an agreement with Papu (until 2023, 2.5 million euros plus bonus, option for another season) but not with Atalanta. The Bergamo players ask for PIrola, the answer was spades, Inter proposes Oristanio who, however, cannot be exchanged with Papu. Relations with Suning are excellent, the impression is that Gomez will eventually move not by much, unless there are sensational surprises.
