D'Alessandro Back With Maños


The latter was cause for him to be thrown out of practice earlier this week when he yelled at the coach for giving fellow Argentine midfielder Aimar “special priviliges”. This was the culmination of what led to the fisticuffs in Monday’s practice.

The Maño brass decided to take care of this issue quickly by instituting a zero tolerance policy on the player along with a fine of “historic” proportions.

D’Alessandro’s temper and big head (both literally and figuratively) are what have overshadowed his unbelievable talent. It was the cause of his departure from both Wolfsburg and Portsmouth. His arrival to Zaragoza seemed to be a perfect place to have a fresh start, but now things are not so rosy for him.

According to the meeting that the player had with club president Eduardo Bandrés, another act of indiscipline will have him suspended indefinitely or even worse.
