Despite just arriving back in Italy, the veteran striker could be set for a shock departure following the team's 5-1 loss to Torino.

Despite just arriving back in Italy recently, some reports already have Samuel Eto'o primed for an early exit.

The veteran striker, who was a part of the history-making Inter side that won the Treble in 2010, has had a nomadic existence since, first playing in Russia before making a move to Chelsea and most recently, Everton.

After failing to make much of an impact with his last club, he then moved to Sampdoria recently as the Genoa-based outfit are seeking to qualify for the Champions League next season.

However, his second spell in Serie A has not gone as planned.  Following the team's 5-1 humiliation at the hands of Torino in which he came on as a late substitute, Sinisa Mihajlovic demanded his players attend a double training session as punishment.

Eto'o, though, opted not to show up for the latter meeting, enraging his new boss who did not mince his words when asked about the 33-year-old:

"To argue it takes two people, however, he is the one with the problem," the Serbian tactician stated.

"He just left and it has shown a total lack of respect for me and the entire team."

Yet, when asked directly about what action the club would take, he was quite vague in his response:

"[To be honest], I do not know what the club plans to do."
