Tutto Salernitana has an article on the subject to illustrate the effect Wolverhampton Wanderers’ last-minute attempt to capture Boulaye Die has had on the player.
The website describes how the striker went from being “Maradona’s hero” to becoming a “traitor” in a couple of months after being a standout for the Serie A team previous season.
He was then penalized for his behavior and benched for the 2-0 loss to Lecce before leaving for the Senegal international team, where a major injury was found.
He allegedly traveled to France for personal reasons on Wednesday but has yet to make his way back. This was done without the club’s approval.
Due to Wolves’ attempt to sign him on the final day of the transfer window, there is a lot of discussion surrounding him as a result.
The Italian club Tutto Salernitana recall that the Premier League team contacted Dia’s agents directly, which was not appreciated, and that this ‘exacerbated the rift’ between the team and their number 10 led him from being Maradona’s hero to a traitor, one ‘to be sold at all costs and kicked out of the squad until January’.
Regarding the “Maradona’s hero” part, it comes from the fact that he delayed Napoli’s championship celebrations by a week last season as a result of a late goal scored at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.
Considering the current state of affairs, Salernitana “does not rule out any type of scenario,” including a sale in January, even if they are aware that everything mentioned above “will lower the price tag.”
