Livorno coach Domenico Di Carlo has been forced to start with his new signing Ishak Belfodil on the bench and says that it can take a while before Belfodil will be ready for a starting position.
According to Di Carlo, Belfodil was in pretty bad shape when he came to Livorno, he said “it seems incredible that a player like Belfodil has arrived in January in this form. A player like him needs to play with continuity. It seems strange that when he was at Inter he has failed to find an acceptable form. Belfodil told me that he trained alone, and this is also a strange thing, unthinkable for a investment of that proportion”
He added “I dont know what happened, whether there were problems between Belfodil and the club. This may have been why he was working away from the rest of the group. I’m sorry because he will need some time”.
