COSENZA “Business is business”, is how he would have answered on the phone Eugenio Guarasciopresident of Cosenza Calcio to a hypothetical phone call from the prosecutor Gennaro Tutino, Mario Giuffredi. If there had been a contact after the frost following the “surprise” redemption of the Neapolitan striker, the Calabrian patron – praised by the rossoblù square after years of boos and controversies – would certainly have smiled, that of someone who holds one of the B’s best players: bound to Cosenza by a two-year contract. After the 2 and a half million euros (cent less or cent more) spent to redeem the Parma ownership card, the president announced the market “coup” urbi et orbi, leaving the press room stunned, ready to type the de profundis on the red-blue love story between the number 9 and the Sila club. And instead, the coupe de theatre it also surprised Mario Giuffredi who, after the “Di Lorenzo problem” with Napoli, hoped to avoid a new soap opera with one of his clients as the main protagonist. In football, a bit like in life, little or nothing goes as you think and above all as you hope and then a signature on a contract turns into a prison, golden, but still a prison. At least in the vision of Giuffredi (and we imagine also of Tutino) who was quick to feed the reporters heated declarations on the future of the Neapolitan bomber «far from Cosenza».
The transfer market it’s in its infancy, it will officially start in July but it’s obvious and obvious that the problem must be resolved as quickly as possible. It would be convenient for both parties. Eugenio Guarascio waits – like Uncle Scrooge – to dive into a sea of gold tokens. The million euros, at least 4, collected from the possible (practically obvious) transfer of number 9 would allow the General Manager Beppe Ursino and to the DS Gennaro Delvecchio to finance a market otherwise reduced to a few pennies to invest in zero parameters or unknown talents. In short, nothing crazy.
On the other hand, of course, Mario Giuffredi hopes to close the “case” soon to give Tutino that (completely deserved) chance to try to play the card of life. All-in with all the chips on the table to savor the excitement of a top flight championship, be it Italian or foreign. The rumors, in fact, speak of an interest from a German club. We’ll see, the stalemate between the parties risks turning into one war of attritionbetween those who want to earn after the investment made and those who – as in Escape to Victory – fight to fulfill a dream, which until last season was almost unachievable.
