RUTHLESS Jose Mourinho claims he has told one of his Roma players to “find a new club” in an angry rant after a draw at Sassuolo.
The former Chelsea and Manchester United boss was furious after his team blew victory in last night’s Serie A clash.
Tammy Abraham’s 80th-minute goal looked to have secured a 1-0 away win.
However, Andrea Pinamonti earned Sassuolo a share of the spoils with just five minutes remaining – leaving the Special One raging.
And rather than direct his fury at his full Roma team, Mourinho instead singled out just one unnamed player for their “poor attitude” afterwards.
He said: “I am sorry that the efforts of the team were betrayed by the attitude of one unprofessional player.

“You didn’t see me talking that way about Roger Ibanez against Lazio, because errors are part of the game, his attitude was never a problem.
“An unprofessional attitude that is not fair to his teammates, that is what disappoints me.
“I had 16 players on the field tonight and I liked the attitude of 15 of them.
“I told the other that he had this attitude today only and not always. Now we want to close this period of the season with three points. In January, he needs to find himself another club.”

Despite Mourinho’s refusal to name the player, Corriere dello Sport are claiming it is full-back Rick Karsdorp.
The 27-year-old Dutch international came on as a substitute for Zeki Celik and lost several challenges as well as misplacing a number of crosses.
And he was also guilty of slack defending as Armand Lauriente broke forward to set up Pinamonti for the equaliser.
Karsdorp, who is under contract until June 2025, joined Roma from Feyenoord back in 2017 and has made over 100 appearances for the club.
