The Portuguese coach said Dzeko suffered an injury before the Spezia clash, but reports in Italy insist their relationship fell apart, so much so the future of the former Manchester City in the Eternal City striker depends on his coach.

According to Sky Sport, Roma have been looking for an escape route trying to offer Dzeko to some top European clubs.

His €7.5m-a-year salary, however, is preventing any potential suitor from signing the 34-year-old in the January transfer window.
