Olbia This evening, Sunday 28 April, was the last game of his career Daniele Dessena. Olbia-Spal 1-4 is the epilogue for the 36-year-old midfielder. “Speaking after a relegation is painful. I stop playing because the time has come, I’m proud to do it like this too. I feel like I’ve given everything, I’ve achieved my goal which was to stop in Sardinia. After 10 years in Cagliari and almost two in Olbia. A decision that is not abandoning ship.”
« I understand the fans’ anger and disappointment but I feel like thanking them. I care about the shirt – his words -, unfortunately in this case these situations exist. I’m very sorry, but I thank my teammates who have given me so much, my wife, my family. I think I have always been a man and never had personal interests, I have a clear conscience and I am clean about myself”, said Dessena, becoming emotional in the conference room.
Just five months ago the midfielder signed a two-year renewal, but he is confident that he has now made this choice. “I would have done it even if we had saved ourselves.” Will he stay in football? «Of course, I have already done the UEFA B course, I would like to do it as a coach. But let’s see, now we start from scratch.”
