We will start again with renewals, probably as early as next week. With three names on the list. Two simpler operations, one a little more complicated. But Rimini will try to bring Lorenzo Malagrida back to the red and white. The midfielder, who arrived in Romagna last transfer market, is owned by Sampdoria and the Rimini management would like to have him back in Piazzale del Popolo. A not impossible hypothesis considering that among the player’s first choices, in the event that the Ligurian club decides not to add him to the first team, there is Rimini. A Malagrida encore, therefore, is not impossible. The 20-year-old midfielder, originally from Pietra Ligure, has made 14 appearances and scored one goal in his four months in the checkered shirt. Malagrida’s return would also close a box under in that red and white chessboard in which, currently, young people are scarce. Rimini is waiting for positive news to arrive from Genoa, the Sampdoria side. And in the meantime he is focusing on renewals. Which after Gorelli’s could only be two. In fact, the technical director Di Battista has been negotiating the positions of Gigli and Marchesi for days now. The defender and the midfielder will end their relationship with Rimini in two weeks, at the end of the month. But for both of them the street of Piazzale del Popolo could once again be home. For the rest only new faces. Andrea Delcarro has already said goodbye to the company several weeks ago and from 30 June onwards he will be free to sign the contract with another club (probably Renate). Same fate for Sala and Colombo. Both are no longer part of the plans of the Rimini management. Just like Capanni and Iacoponi who returned to base (the former in Terni and the latter in Parma) and should no longer take the road to Romagna again. The same goes for the young Oddi and also for Quacquarelli, expiring on June 30th. Tofanari deserves a separate discussion. The defender seems ready to change shirt considering that Rimini in his role is ‘heading’ towards under profiles. But even last season the full-back’s path seemed clear. Then the about-face on the last day of the market. So, better be careful…
