Agent Beppe Galli gave an interview to Sportitalia focusing above all on the trajectory of three of his clients: Marco Modolo, defender and captain of Venezia who yesterday evening celebrated their promotion to Serie A, but also Alessandro Pio Riccio, defender who Juventus loaned to Modena, Alessandro Bianco, midfielder on loan to Reggiana from Fiorentina, and Antonio Raimondo, a Bologna striker who this year wore the Ternana shirt.
Starting from the first, Modoloexplains: “Yes, I heard it, but he was busy celebrating (laughs, ed.). A goal that he dreamed of reaching again with this shirt that he loves. For him it was a season where he was a captain on and off the field on the pitch, someone who is loved by his teammates as well as by the fans. Above all, he is respected and listened to. He was also very useful in the locker room as well as on the pitch. Because those who don’t know much about football judge players only on their own played, instead Marco was always available even with those who had less space or with the younger players, even from the bench.”
On Riccio, he says: “Being his first year away from Juventus, it was a very important experience for his growth on and off the pitch. The year was very positive, he grew a lot as a defender, and we are very happy with what he has done. I think there is no doubt that he is ready to play in every category. We have always been aware of his qualities. Now we have to meet with Juventus to understand the future.”
On White, he adds: “The boy didn’t do well, but very well. He returns to Florence and in my opinion he has all it takes to stay there, but as we have always done we will discuss with the club and share the next steps together. Last year the choice was It was the player’s choice, who among the various requests he had, preferred Reggiana. He did very well. We will see what to do with Pradé.”
Conclusion on Raimondo: “Just look at the fact that a sports newspaper abroad put him among the top 10 attackers of 2004, he had a truly devastating Serie B championship. Now he’s enjoying the moment, together with Bianco he’s with the Under 21 national team, let’s wait a bit and we’ll meet Bologna later.”
