Nessun accordo, nessun saluto, nessun incontro. Tutte invenzioni post tripletta di @keitabalde14 …l'unica cosa vera! #keita ⚽️⚽️⚽️💪 https://t.co/1di75JJA97

“No agreement, no goodbye, no meetings. All are inventions after Keita’s hattrick, the only real thing.”
These words are to be expected from an agent, but it remains to be seen whether this is a ploy to command more from the chasing clubs.
