Okaka posted a cryptic message on his Facebook page promising that ‘the truth will come out’, and now the club has released a statement of their own.

“During this morning’s training at Gloriano Mugnaini, Stefano Okaka was dismissed for inappropriate behaviour toward the Coach,” the Blucerchiati said in a statement on their official website.

“The club will consider whether to take disciplinary action in light of the attitude subsequently taken by the same Okaka toward the sporting director.”
