modena on Defrel, there is also Caldara
—
The idea is suggestive and would be to find ourselves ten years after having lived a period full of only pleasant memories. Modena needs to increase its offensive weight after a couple of seasons where the attack has not given adequate responses. Hence the hypothesis of testing the waters to convince Gregoire Defrel, 33, to move down a category and embrace the Modena project. The suggestion lies in the fact that the French striker who has just been released from Sassuolo, was a Bisoli player at the time of promotion to Serie A in Cesena. Of course, ten years have passed, but Defrel’s desire to redeem a last season with ups and downs is great. Bisoli has therefore asked the new sports director Catellani to explore this path. Defrel has apparently given his ok to return to the arms of Bisoli with whom he had done very well. But the obstacle, as happens in these cases, is of an economic nature. And Modena does not want to upset the balance of a management that, according to the owners, has a salary of around 12 million. “It is still early to go into the details of the negotiation”, they say from Modena and next week we will know something more precise. Modena, which already has a roster with about twenty players under contract and with some young players on the rise, wants first of all to bring experience from the market. Bisoli asks for it, the club wants it to face a calm championship. Caldara’s gamble is going in this direction, a former young player with great prospects, now 30 years old, coming off an unlucky and difficult year due to a serious injury. In this case too it was Bisoli who made this express request, counting on the desire for redemption of a player who has arrived at a professional crossroads. Doing well even if in Serie B with Modena, would mean seeing the light again. The negotiation is very advanced, Modena has done its own checks, receiving reassuring answers, to understand the athletic and physical conditions of the player and consequently we are just a few days away from a possible signature. Caldara will arrive in Emilia on a free transfer.
