Respect, trust and awareness of embracing an ambitious project. Domenico Toscano had been in contact with Catania for over a month. Contacts that, as time passes, have become gradually intensified with vice president Vincenzo Grella and the new Rossazzurri Sports Director, Daniele Faggiano.
All this while various transfer sources linked Toscano to clubs such as Padua, Vicenza, Bari, Salernitana. But the Reggio Calabria native coach had already reached an agreement with Catania some time ago. The signing on a two-year contract with an option for a third year and the official nature of the agreement could not be ratified until it arrived the completion of the contractual termination with Cesena. These are precisely the cases in which you can never truly be at peace.
So it happens that, for example, the former Lecce coach Roberto D’Aversa has an agreement on everything with Cesena for the replacement of Toscano himself on the bench but the sudden call from Empoli turns the cards on the table forcing the most it’s nice for the people of Romagna to turn to other profiles. It is likely that a professional may evaluate other requests as more advantageous and may have second thoughts. In the case of Toscano it prevailed the value of the handshake and the given word.
It couldn’t be otherwise because from the first conversations with the Etna society that spark was sparked, that way of reflecting and looking at the present and the future while speaking the same language. Hunger, great passion for football, ambitions, solid ownership and prospects they meant that Toscano exclusively took the Catania hypothesis into consideration. The most fascinating challenge, as he himself defined it. Nothing is achieved without effort. The work to prepare the 2024/25 Catania squad has begun, then the pitch will do the talking. Toscano immediately embarked on the Etna adventure with enthusiasm, hunting for a new venture.
