Following a turbulent day of rumors claiming Mourinho’s words in the aftermath of Sassuolo-Roma were directed at Dutch fullback Rick Karsdorp, the player’s agent – Johan Henkes – intervened and spoke to La Gazzetta dello Sport asking for further explanations from the capital club.
“I’m surprised by Mourinho’s words, I want an explanation. We’re also surprised by the fact that everyone’s been pointing fingers at Rick despite neither Mourinho or Roma uttered his name,” Henkes told the Italian newspaper.
“We want an explanation from the club about the coach’s words and the way he did it,” the agent concluded.
