Fiorentina confirmed their decision to drop Norberto Neto after a contract snub. “If someone doesn’t believe in the project…”

The goalkeeper this week announced he would not be renewing his current deal, which expires in June, so he can leave as a free agent.

He was promptly dropped to the bench for today’s Serie A game against Parma, the gloves handed to Ciprian Tatarusanu.

The goalkeeper this week announced he would not be renewing his current deal, which expires in June, so he can leave as a free agent.

He was promptly dropped to the bench for today’s Serie A game against Parma, the gloves handed to Ciprian Tatarusanu.

“It was a difficult choice and it can be criticised by some, but if a player comes to the club and says he doesn’t believe in the project, then…” Fiorentina team manager Vincenzo Guerini told Sky Sport Italia.

“Neto chose to terminate his Fiorentina career and we simply acknowledged that decision.”

If the Brazilian refuses a January sale, he will likely spend six months on the bench.
