From a possible farewell to an agreement aimed at laying the foundations for the future. The technician Giacomo Modica he announced after the last conversation with the president Pietro Sciotto the agreement found: “He gave an important signal by registering the team again. We spoke with the utmost honesty and loyalty, there was the will of both, as well as the certificates of esteem from the market. I thank the owners for giving me the opportunity to train here again. I will be honored to be part of this company again.”

Having set aside the advances coming from some other teams, Messina will have to raise the bar of objectives after having achieved a quiet salvation: “I had had contact with other clubs, the negotiations were prolonged but I still waited for Messina. Up to four days before the end we were dreaming of playoffs but the survival rate has risen compared to the past. We will seek the satisfaction that the square deserves, we hope to be able to rejoice together for other goals. I hope to represent a point of reference for the team.”
It is necessary to structure the company more: “We need to improve theorganization and human resources management. If we do this we will not necessarily be inferior to our opponents. Clearly I can’t say that we will aim for B but we will try to be a fun, empathetic team and improve our position, perhaps arriving in the top ten places.”

Now it is necessary to think about the field: “We have important young players in the squad but as always we will need the right mix with the more experienced players. We must be good on the market in knowing how to identify what we need. The players are there but we must identify flexible elements with tactical sagacity useful for exploiting our prerogatives. I hope he can still be the sporting director Dominic Romewhich I respect.” In the last few hours, however, the Calabrian manager has been joined by the Foggia.
We start again with just five members and with a season already knocking on the door (according to forecasts the Italian Cup will start on August 11th, the championship on the 25th): “Now we will start working on the team, identifying the necessary reinforcements, and choosing the retreat location. Maybe we won’t be ready in the first few days because we’re a little late. As a new training ground we have identified Giammorothere doesn’t seem to be any availability in the city.”
