Napoli Coach Maurizio Sarri claims he’s spent three days trying to get Belgium to rest Dries Mertens, with no answer.
Roberto Martinez’s side are already assured of a place in Russia, so the Partenopei boss wants his striker rested for the games with Bosnia & Herzegovina and Cyprus.
“I’ve been trying to talk to the Belgium Coach [Martinez] for three days to let Dries rest,” Il Mattino quotes Sarri as saying.
“They’ve already qualified, but it’s useless: he still hasn’t answered me yet.”
