Giuseppe Rossi's limited time in JuventusFiorentina once again set in motion rumours that he will leave.

Giuseppe Rossi's limited time in Juventus-Fiorentina once again set in motion rumours that he will leave.

The 29-year-old came in as part of a last-ditch attempt by Coach Paulo Sousa to reverse the 2-1 lead by the Bianconeri, but the Italo-American only had 10 minutes to work with.

Yesterday's game seemed to confirm the predictions of those who expect Rossi to leave Fiorentina before the closing of the market.

Rossi and Sousa never talked to each other during the game, and it is believed they do not have a very strong rapport. But over and beyond the limited time on the pitch, it is the problem of Fiorentina's formation that seems to push the striker away.

The Manchester United youth product needs a team with two strikers up-front if his game is to flourish, and in the game against Juventus Sousa stuck with his traditional 4-2-3-1 system.

With little prospects of getting much more time on the pitch over the season, the Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Rossi's agent as well as sporting director Pantaleo Corvino are working on finding him a new destination.

The player is nonetheless reluctant to move to Major League Soccer for now, preferring to remain in Serie A.
