Benevento immediately had the strength to reset, put the regret of exiting the Play Offs behind them and look forward. Immediately at the final whistle against Carrarese, president Vigorito spoke about the future, thanking the square and underlining the awareness of being able to restart on solid foundations laid especially under the management of Gaetano Auteri. The reconfirmation of the Sicilian coach was the first piece inserted for the new season, last Monday’s meeting was not only the opportunity to close the agreement for the renewal, but to evaluate together with director Carli the guidelines for the next market. Net of the returns from the various loans, Benevento will find themselves having to manage a squad of around 34 members, evidently too many, while the threshold of 24 with which to face the championship is the same one announced by Vigorito. It will be another difficult summer especially in terms of departures, the line will always be to evaluate every offer, but not to sell out and above all to let yourself be overwhelmed by the tug-of-war of the market. Several are leaving, but Benevento will do so calmly, without being overwhelmed by market dynamics. The first match is that of renewals, Ferrante will not be redeemed, while the various Terranova, Ciano and Improta are saying goodbye. However, contacts with the entourage of Beloved Ciciretti who, revitalized by Auteri, should continue his experience in the Giallorossi. The renewal is being evaluated, this time on salary bases which will not be entirely linked to attendance and objectives as for the previous year. Expected updates this week. The company will also speak with Manfredinibecause for next year the intention is to focus strongly on Nunziante, perhaps as a second, trying to plan even more first-team football for the fresh U17 European Champion. Manfredini could also stay, he has already given his availability, we will talk about it.
Furthermore, the tactical compass that will guide the market strategies which this time will adapt to the many players already available so as not to revolutionize around a tactical idea that would imply excessive upheavals has also been defined. Without midfield wingers and full of midfielders, we will start again from the formation with which Auteri closed the Play Offs, i.e. a 4-3-3 that can enhance the characteristics of players like Pinato, Talia and Nardi. A little something will be done in the middle of the field, but in light of the departures. The player who impressed is Omar Correia of Triestina, on which however the B teams are in the spotlight, but Benevento will remain on the sidelines. At least one right back will be needed, while Auteri will evaluate the young player on the left-handed outfielder Sena in retirement, returning from the loan to Syracuse. Where management won’t wait is on offense. The idea is to deliver a unit of 7 flexible and high-level footballers: the first internal purchase that Auteri hopes to have is precisely that of Starita, who did not replicate the numbers of the first leg with Monopoli in the second round, but with a job that this time will start from the retreat, the hope is that the attacker, once inserted into the tactical mechanisms from the beginning, can in some way return to its performance standards. Carli also has a couple of attacking wingers in his sights, but the focus is above all on the role of first striker. The offensive numbers of the past championship are emblematic of the department’s difficulty in scoring and the intention is to focus on a strong and experienced profile to support Perlingieri, a player in whom there is maximum confidence. Two or three names are in the Giallorossi DT’s notebook, watch out for the name of Claudio Morra, Rimini striker (19 goals in 35 appearances in the championship just concluded). The tip has been followed for several months and is linked to another two years of contract, but it is a welcome profile and it does not mean that an attempt will not be made.
The list of players who will return from various loans is long, almost none will be part of Auteri’s plans, but the Giallorossi club will manage their departures without devaluations and above all worries. Acampora, Viviani and Koutsoupias were not redeemed, Letizia will also return from the loan to FeralpiSalò, but of these only the Greek, returning from injury, could be a future asset for the Benevento coach. In fact, he will leave for the retreat in Rome, the coach and director will speak with the boy to understand if there may be room for him to stay. Situations that could be similar to that of Alin Tosca: the defender still has one year left on his contract and will return from Al Ryiadh, with whom he only played in the first half of the season, then removed from the squad. He has a heavy salary, no possibility for him can be ruled out.
There will be a lot of work for Carli, but in the meantime Benevento is ready to give the first blow to the attack.
