Zarate remains frustrated after move from Irons

zarate actionFormer Hammer Mauro Zarate remains frustrated after his £1.6m move to Fiorentina.

The Argentian has not been a regular in the Fiorentina first-team this season, starting just four times and has already been linked with another exit in the summer.

However, his brother and agent is putting a brave face on it by insisting.

“Despite the complicated period for the Viola, his season up until now has been positive and we’re satisfied with this. Clearly he’d like to have more space. Like every player, his desire is to play as much as possible, but it’s the Coach’s choice and Paulo Sousa’s decisions must be respected.”

When he joined Fiorentina he hit out at West Ham by saying:

“I’m happy to be back in Italy with a great team, and to show how I can play,” said Zarate.

“It’s a good chance for me to get back on track. In England, it was good because English football is enjoyable, but I wasn’t too comfortable with my role at the club and that’s why I decided to come here. I prefer to play in a free, attacking role, one that allows me to roam. I’ve already spoken with Sousa and he has assured me I’ll have that.

    Good player but not consistent enough to be a starter, a squad player with an over inflated opinion of himself and his talents. Would do better at a smaller team lower down the leagues to get the recognition he thinks he deserves

    I liked him but as with many others he thinks he is better then he is,Moses,Song Emineke
    And many at other clubs could be great players,but they let their agents and their bank balances rule their heads,
    But the main reason they become also fans is because they don’t put in 100% when on the pitch and do not become part of the team work,
    All the greats gave everything to add to their gift other don’t have that extra gift but stil become legends because of their commitment
    Sorry Zarate you missed your chance now you will be a nothing but still quite rich,
    All Leicester players will now become Legends but only a few are that special
