The summer of great twists (of the scene and of the market) continues! After the announcement of the end of the historical relationship between Gigi Milanie la JuventusMichele’s arrival at the Juventus club Hurry up from Genoa and the many movements in the panorama of professional youth football, another ‘bombshell’ piece of news is added: Claudio Sclosa in fact, he has been responsible for Inter’s scouts since 2017, it seems on the way ‘back home’given that after his farewell to the Nerazzurri club the next destination for the high-profile former footballer and agent seems to be that of joining Torino FC!
Claudio Sclosa in fact, it was a Inter’s head of observers since 2017 when he was called by the club to replace the departing Claudio Mirabelli which followed his long experience as chief observer of Juventusa role he held from 2011 to 2014 first as chief scout in Italy for the Juventus club, then as chief scout for Piedmont in a three-year relationship full of satisfactions. Claudio Sclosa who, having given up his role as a footballer, had started his career as a sports agent in Giuseppe Bonetto’s IFA club.
For Claudio Sclosa, as mentioned, it is a ‘homecoming’ given that he was born and raised as a footballer in Turin. In fact, he, born in Latisana in 1961, took his very first steps as a footballer in the Polisportiva Lignanese before being called up by Torino at the age of 14, i.e. in 1975, where he completed his entire career in the Granata youth team until 1979. Then the big leap into the first Granata team in the three-year period 1979-1982, years in which he was also called up by the Under 21 national team, and with his first appearances and experiences on the field with the first Granata team in Serie A (with a total of 47 appearances) before going to cut his teeth first at Bologna and then Como.
Turin who then called him back in the 1984-1985 season, in the year with Gigi on the bench Root and the Granata to compete for the Scudetto against Verona Of Bagnoli with a team in which they were included Leo Junior, Renato Zaccarelli, Beppe Dossena, Antonio Comi, Aldo Serena and Walter Schachner. The following year he then went to Bari, then to Pisa before his long militancy at Lazio with parentheses at Cremonese and his last season as a footballer in 1995-1996 at Pistoiese.
Gone from the shoes of the footballer Claudio Sclosa he immediately specialized in supervising and assisting footballers and has always been a great observer of young talents. In his long militancy first as an agent and then as a scout, we meet and met him very often at professional national youth competitions, always very careful in viewing and selecting the young promises to put under his protective wing or to join the clubs for which he has worked in recent years, the Juventus before and theInter Then.
The arrival and return ‘home’ for the former ‘son of Philadelphia’ represents a great blow for the Granata club, representing a guarantee of experience, professionalism and knowledge of the world of youth football and beyond. An important arrival that will enrich and strengthen a Granata organizational structure awaiting increasingly fascinating and difficult challenges, on the field and beyond. The creation of the new Robaldo sports center represents and will represent a fundamental step for the development and expansion of the youth sector of Torino Fc headed Ruggero Ludergnani.
