It is rare for a Serie C club to sell at these figures, Leoni played 3 minutes of the championship and one Coppa Italia match with us, we worked on it. We were good as a club, Sampdoria wanted to pay us 300 thousand euros, we took out a loan believing in it, it was a strategy that paid off with important results. Sampdoria will make the redemption with immediate payment.”
