Portuguese midfielder Tiago Mendes’ days at Juventus seem to be numbered after the unsettled ace admitted his frustration at the club.
The ex-Chelsea man has struggled to make his mark and is poorly suited to boss Claudio Ranieri’s new tactics.
Having experienced harsh criticism from fans and the Press alike, summer arrival Tiago may be ready to call a premature halt to his Italian adventure.
“If things carry on like this I’ll leave in January,” the 26-year-old raged. “I’ve spoken to Ranieri and told him that I’m not happy because this isn’t what I came here for.
“So far my time with Juve has been a disappointment. I thought I’d be a first-choice player, but it has been the exact opposite and my time here hasn’t been easy.
“Initially I admit that I felt tired, but I got back into shape by the time the season started and the boss has still preferred other players.”
Tiago is set to sit on the bench once more for the Old Lady’s game against Genoa this weekend.
