on sunday, sports witness Italy's claims about doubts over Lorenzo Lucca's attitude at Nottingham Forest covered up claims.
Journalist Luca Marchetti explained that similar concerns remained at Napoli. It didn't stop at the Midlands club, leaving doubts over the striker's future at the City Ground.
Lucca scored on his Nottingham Forest debut but has barely made an impact since. He also received a lot of criticism and all of this resulted in his ouster over the weekend.
The striker was left out of the squad completely against Brighton and this has attracted attention in Italy.
Mystery over nottingham forest player
arianapoli Note that there is no clear reason why the 25-year-old has been dropped by Vitor Pereira.
They clarify that the player is unlikely to be injured. He performed against Fenerbahce in the Europa League without any apparent concerns.
This is being considered as another blow to Napoli's hopes of making money from player sales. He financed this largely on loan to Lucca, initially signing the loan with an obligation to buy himself.
Awaiting clarity on Lucca
A few weeks ago, it became clear that Antonio Conte did not always get along with the Italian at Napoli. There were question marks over his application and work-ethic, as the ex-Tottenham manager physically interrogated many of his players.
Lucca wasn't fitting in and that was one of the main reasons he was let go in January. Napoli fans were also angered by his poor performance.
It remains to be seen whether Nottingham Forest have similar problems. But everything suggests that the 25-year-old is unlikely to stay with Vitor Pereira for very long.
Not long ago, the forward was seen as the next big thing in Italian football. The way things unfolded is unfortunate but the player may have to bear the brunt of it.
