According to Alfredo Pedullà, Giuseppe Magalini is now about to join Bari, as already anticipated several weeks ago. The choice was made some time ago, with a two-year contract already ready, but the definitive move was linked to the release from Catanzaro. Despite a preliminary contract with Catanzaro, expiring on June 30, the Calabrian club decided not to file that document, thus facilitating Magalini’s departure.
The liberation of Magalini
The negotiations between Magalini and Catanzaro were quite intense. In recent days, Catanzaro seemed intent on depositing Magalini’s contract, but according to the information obtained by our editorial team, this step had already been completed. However, a change of direction led Catanzaro to renounce this move, thus allowing the sporting director to free himself and sign for Bari in the next few hours.
The new sporting director of Catanzaro
With Magalini’s imminent departure, Catanzaro is moving quickly to choose its new sporting director. In the last few hours, Ciro Polito, leaving Bari, seems to have taken command of the race for the vacant position. Polito, with good experience and in-depth knowledge of Serie B, could be the ideal candidate to lead Catanzaro next season.
The track for the bench
In parallel with the question of the sporting director, Catanzaro is also engaged in the search for a new coach. The most accredited name, for which we are trying to close, is that of Alberto Aquilani. The former player, who has already shown good coaching skills, remains one of the favorites to take the reins of the team.
Today’s evening could mark a turning point for the future of Giuseppe Magalini and for the reorganization of Catanzaro. With the release of Magalini and the arrival in Bari, the Calabrian club will have to accelerate the selection of the new sporting director and coach. The choice of Ciro Polito now seems close, while the bench could soon be entrusted to Alberto Aquilani.
