Meanwhile, the process to start the restoration of Via del Mare continues.LECCE (ITALPRESS) – With the salvation mission almost achieved, the president of Lecce, Saverio Sticchi Damiani, spoke at a press conference to talk about funding for the 2026 Mediterranean Games, intended for the restyling works that will “see the protagonist” Via del Mare. All this only after having made a small mention of the championship: “There is a little bit missing from achieving another extraordinary result in an excellent path”. Returning to the stadium, for the first loan, of almost 12 million euros, only the official confirmation is now missing, but it seems that this is not the only good news of the day for the Giallorossi.
“A second decree is being prepared, with a second budget allocation. There will be a ministerial decree that will make another important sum available, of around 100 million euros. Never before has the dream of having coverage been concrete”, said the number one of the Salento club. To realize this dream, Lecce will move as it did in reaching the first loan. The club will commission a feasibility study from trusted professionals and Saverio Sticchi Damiani himself will submit everything to Minister Raffaele Fitto and to the Commissioner for the Mediterranean Games Massimo Ferrarese, so as to facilitate the inclusion of the works in the master plan of the Taranto Games 2026. “All our fans have the right, after years of rain and sun, to have comfort, which is in everyone’s interest. I have a dream, and if I talk about it it is because I have a well-founded hope. This is a battle that Salento deserves to win, a train that I don’t think will pass again”, added Sticchi Damiani. “Today coverage has a considerable cost but the budget is important. Next week I will meet Minister Fitto and Commissioner Ferrarese to communicate the need for a unique opportunity. The decision whether to include it or not will be made over the course of these days “, concluded the president of Lecce. The dream of seeing a restored and covered Via del Mare is more alive than ever. – photo Ipa Agency – (ITALPRESS). zzc/pdm/red 30-Apr-24 2.15pm .
