The names continue to be many. But there are few certainties for now. Cagliari seemed to have found their coach to whom they could entrust the team to manage the post-Ranieri era but the forceful inclusion of Lazio meant that the Baroni deal fell through. And now it will be necessary to start all over again. Because there are many candidates the club has set its sights on but none have resolved their reservations. Above all because even society is not fully convinced. All attention had, in fact, been directed towards the former Verona coach but Tudor’s farewell to the Biancocelesti changed the cards on the table. A coup that forced Cagliari to do everything from the start because the technical issue now seemed resolved with Baroni, very inclined to accept the rossoblù bench. The stalemate brings the situation back a few weeks but now time is starting to run out. And for this reason it will be necessary to force the hand to try to get to the coach who will have the delicate task of keeping the fans’ passion and enthusiasm high. Many have been brought to the helm but little remains concrete.
From the first, Vanoli and Dionisi, to the last, Calzona and Nicola, passing through various intermediate solutions that lasted as little as those of Lucescu or Sarri. The club had set yesterday as the deadline, waiting for development to arrive from Rome, opposite Lazio, and hoping that in the end Baroni would accept Sardinia. The signing with the Biancocelesti also extinguished the last hopes and now we will have to move on by looking for an equally valid profile from a technical-tactical point of view. There is no shortage of solutions but to arrive at the right choice it will be necessary for the company to provide reassurances. Not so economical because it is normal that Cagliari cannot do anything crazy to pay a coach’s salary. But those on the staff yes. Because any coach, before dissolving his reservations, will want to have certainties about the type of squad he will have available for the next championship. Focusing on young people is good and represents a safe investment for the club too. At the same time, certainties are needed. Given by quality players and experiences. Qualities which, however, can cost dearly and for this reason, without distorting the policy of prudent choices and targeted investments, it will be necessary to raise the stakes slightly. Trying to retain the protagonists of last season and aiming to enhance some other young players. But until the coaching issue is resolved, everything will remain on stand-by because the choices of the staff are closely linked to those of the technical guide. And the fans hope that, after a few days of waiting too long, good news will begin to arrive soon. One of those capable of keeping alive the enthusiasm that Claudio Ranieri, in 18 months, managed to bring back to an environment that had reached the brink of depression.
