The yellow-blue club is very active on the transfer front: renewal for the attacking midfielder and deal closing for the Chieri midfielder
L’Bold Cerignola communicated the renewal through its official channels until 2026 of the Spanish attacking midfielder Miguel Angel Sainz-Maza. Furthermore, the Apulian club is close to the arrival of Chieri midfielder Riccardo Vono. For the class 2000 a biennial is ready.
Programming and desire to overcome one’s limits. The 2024-2025 season, in a certain sense, has already begun. The aim is to strengthen the squad with the right mix of young and experienced players. To overcome that seventh position with which the 23/24 season ended. A very important result, which the company however wants to at least reconfirm if not improve.
This is why Elio Di Toro, the club’s sporting director, is doing everything possible to give Raffaele (confirmed at the helm of the team) the best possible training. Between confirmations, such as Sainz-Maza, and new arrivals: this is the case of Riccardo Vono, now very close to becoming a new yellow-blue footballer. For him, as mentioned, a two-year contract is ready, until 2026.
From the field to the bench, the important confirmation was that of Raphael. The former Potenza coach has signed until 2026. Since his arrival (11 March 2024), the team has achieved 4 wins, 3 draws and only two defeats. The average points was 1.67 per match. In the playoffs, the dream faded in the second round of the group stage against the Casertana (0-0).
Saint-Maza and Vono: the first moves…”Bold”
THEREbold Cerignola he wants to do more next season. The secret is not to settle. The first purchase could be Riccardo Vono. Born in 2000, 23 years old from Domodossola (Piedmont), he played in Serie D with Chieri in the last season. Mezzala, a raider by attitude, scored 9 goals in 24 appearances in group A.
From purchases to reconfirmations. After Raffaele, the management has protected Miguel Sainz-Maza. This season he has made 24 appearances (including 2 in the playoffs and one in the Italian Cup) with 1 goal and 2 assists.
Cerignola, the numbers in season
At the beginning of the year, no one would have ever imagined such a milestone. Even more so after Michele Pazienza’s farewell. Seventh position is an important and unexpected achievement for Cerignola, who have been in Serie C for two years. With 53 points, the Apulian team managed to qualify for the playoffs for the second consecutive year.
There were twelve victories, 12 draws and only 9 defeats. 54 goals were scored and 46 conceded. Not spectacular but effective football. Cerignola still wants to amaze.
