“When a lad leaves my Samp, it leaves a bitter taste,” Ferrero told the club’s official website.
“Everyone tells me ‘that’s football’, and that you have to understand the situations that it creates. But for a fan like me, full of love, it breaks my heart a little.
“Good luck to a great lad and a great champion, we’ll always follow you with affection.”
