Working to build the new Bari. The sporting director Giuseppe Magalini and the assistant manager Valerio Di Cesare will try this week to give the first pieces to the coach Moreno Longo. There is no time to waste, departure for the Roccaraso retreat is scheduled for July 10th. At least twelve incoming operations and a squad that will be built on 3-4-2-1 or 3-4-1-2.
The first gap to fill is that of the goalkeeper. At the moment there is only Pissardo, destined to stay but who will also have to discuss the renewal of his contract expiring in June 2025. There has been a survey with Palermo for Pigliacelli, they like Fulignati from Catanzaro and the youngster born in 2002 is being monitored Rinaldi of Parma.
And Bari has opened a dialogue with the Emilian club for Partipilo. Over the weekend there was a first contact with both the player and his agent. A useful comparison to understand the intentions of Partipilo, tied by an important contract with Parma until June 2027. It is clear that the attacker’s desire would be to take a chance in Serie A, but if this does not happen, Bari would represent the ideal solution. Partipilo would be tickled by the idea of returning as a protagonist with the red and white shirt, he from the San Girolamo district, after his time in the youth sector and a couple of appearances in the Italian Cup. A substantial two-year contract is ready and the possibility of being included in the squad as a flagship player, outside the 18-over list. An agreement needs to be found with Parma who bought the striker from Ternana last year for 1.8 million euros.

Center forward chapter, we are looking for a structured striker. Longo likes Cerri, his player in Como, chased by Palermo and Sampdoria. Not an easy operation. The attacker, who spent his last season in Empoli, would like to play his cards in the top flight with Como, as well as receiving an important salary for the category.

Then there is the name of Coda, pursued by half of Serie B and proposed by Genoa. Difficult deal, the costs of the operation for the 36-year-old attacker must be carefully evaluated.
In the offensive department, the first two signings will be Sgarbi and Ambrosino, arriving from Napoli, both under. Sgarbi, born in 2001, stood out well in his last season with Avellino. Ambrosino, born in 2003, shared the Catanzaro experience with Magalini. Also from a youth perspective, we followed Compagnon, a 22-year-old attacking winger from Juventus, who has returned from his loan at Feralpisalò.

On a free transfer, the 34-year-old Ciano, a former student of Longo during his time at Frosinone and a close friend of Maiello, could represent a market opportunity.
