The Italian said: "He asked the club to be sold, without mincing his words. This is what was said to me, the player has confirmed his decision to me. Personally I feel very disappointed, because I spent six months trying to make Kvara feel at the centre of the project, working with him, showing him that we could do something great and also working with the club for six months on the renewal."
