From tomorrow Torino will be able to start closing the deal with Vanoli, to bring him to the Granata bench. This evening there is the playoff final to reach Serie A, where the Venezia of the future Granata coach will play against Cremonese.
But why this choice, which seems like a downsizing rather than a leap in quality for post-Juric? Because Toro wants to return to bringing young people from the youth sector into the first team, to make them grow and then, possibly, raise money. As has always happened, even in the times of other managements, including that of Pianelli. Now Buongiorno has risen to prominence, but other young people could emerge in a big way, starting from Gineitis, up to Dellavalle, Savva, Ciammaglichella, Dell’Aquila and so on.
It is not for nothing that the Primavera team was added to the first team in the summer retreat in Pinzolo, precisely to give the new Granata coach the opportunity to keep an eye on the young players. With Juric it was more difficult, while Vanoli managed a Venezia with many young people, with an average age of around 25.6 years.
At the moment it may seem like a downsizing, as if to say we draw from young people, some big names will be sacrificed and the team will never make the leap in quality. But anyone who expects a different trend from Cairo management can only be deluded. After 19 years it is difficult for policies to change, even though the Alexandrian entrepreneur has become much richer than before. But he always remains careful.
