The relegation to Excellence and the president Enea Benedetto who entrusted the team into the hands of God, Allah to be precise, wasn’t enough; dramas at home Legnano continue, with distant ‘wars’ between the various parties involved. A few days ago the club announced the consensual termination of some figures, such as coach Gianluca Zattarin (who actually joined Bassano), the goalkeeping coach Augusto Rasori and the managers Stefano Pianicini, Salvatore Soviero and Stefano Vercellotti.
But Vercellotti himself isn’t in itand through sportlegnano.it he told his truth. Which doesn’t really talk about terminations: “I received calls from some players who asked me, having read the news, if we had received the payments of our wages, which however had not yet been paid to them. I had to explain that we were all We were unaware of everything and that we hadn’t received anything either. […] Benedetto in recent days had told me, the captain and other players that between Friday 31 May and Monday 3 June we would receive a bank transfer or a cashier’s check, however, these promises were not kept, leaving the players without any payment. I’ve been trying to contact him by phone since Monday, but he doesn’t answer me. It is clear that if we do not receive what was agreed, we will not sign the releases necessary to register for the next championship.”
However, it doesn’t end here. To complicate everything, there is also the complaint that Benedetto himself presented to the Federal Prosecutor’s Office after the defeat of the Lilacs in the playout against Castellanzese: “There is an investigation open with the Federal Prosecutor’s Office, I too have been summoned – added Vercellotti – I don’t know what they will ask us, but I suppose the 5-0 raised doubts. After just three minutes, there was a sending off and a penalty against us. It had never happened to me in the whole match my career to see something like that. Bagatini was wrong to commit the foul but I’m sure of his good faith, at the end of the match he was crying, he was devastated. It’s clear that finding yourself 1-0 down with 10 men after a few minutes would cut anyone’s legs And then the 2-0 and 3-0 came immediately afterwards, mentally, for us the match ended there.”
So it will be a hot summer. With developments expected soon.
