The Bentegodi of Verona will be the “Sinigaglia” at the start of the championship. All that’s missing is the official communication, but it now seems done: with the Parma hypothesis over, Como is about to include the Verona stadium as the venue destined to host the first home matches of Fabregas’ men in Serie A, if in Como the works to bring Sinigaglia up to standard were still underway.
As is known, the Como stadium will be affected, in the coming months, by emergency interventions to expand the capacity up to 10 thousand seats, the minimum number (also in derogation) to be able to play in the top championship. The intervention on Sinigaglia, especially to make the distinct sector operational, promises to take longer than the time available before the new season begins. The prediction is that, by getting to play at least the first match away, Como will have to face a couple of home matches away from Lario.
The closest facilities in Monza, Bergamo and Turin were immediately discarded, above all for reasons of public order, the most popular idea was that of Parma. But the red light came from the Emilian city and therefore the Azzurri were forced to go back in search of a new solution, identified in Verona: large stadium, now consolidated management of public order, facility near the motorway and outside the city.
In the meantime, the executive project for the renovation works to bring Sinigaglia up to standard should be filed by the weekend, to allow the necessary interventions to begin and obtain the green light from the Prefecture, fire brigade and police headquarters.
