The Cameroon international clashed with coach Sinisa Mihajlovic after he refused to attend an extra training session following Sampdoria’s 5-1 defeat to Torino, in which he made his debut as a 71st-minute substitute.
The two held crisis talks after Eto’o elected to travel back to Milan, where he and his family are currently based, instead of train with the squad.
The relationship between player and coach have since completely broken down and the club are now considering terminating the former Inter and Barcelona striker’s two year contract by mutual consent, just one week after the 33-year-old joined the club.
Sampdoria officials have refused to confirm reports of the bust-up, insisting Eto’o missed the session because of personal reasons.
