Islam Slimani did not continue the training session with Sporting on Friday. The Algerian was sent off in the middle of the training session. The reason? "lack of involvement".
Sporting coach Ruben Amorim sent off Islam Slimani in the middle of a training session on Friday. The Portuguese newspaper Record reveals that the coach blamed the Algerian for his "lack of commitment". But also his "inability to make a big effort" with the team.
Amorim had also decided not to start Slimani. And the latter did not appreciate at all starting on the bench. He was so annoyed that he was excluded from the training session. The Fennec was then excluded from this Saturday's match against Tondela. The coach called up Rodrigo Ribeiro in his place.
Slimani still in shock after the play-offs?
Several Algerian players carry the weight of a great disappointment after their elimination from the World Cup 2022. The Fennecs were eliminated at home by a killer goal from Karl Toko-Ekambi (120th). The Portuguese coach was even concerned about Slimani's mental health after his return. "Slimani is fine physically, mentally it was difficult for him. He is still a bit disappointed. The club has to help him to be happy again," he said in a press conference.
Since his return to Sporting Club this winter, Islam Slimani has scored four goals in 11 games.
