Of the large contingent of players owned by the Benevento on loan around Italy, he was undoubtedly one of the best. At his first experience in grown-up football, Manuel Esposito it was particularly appreciated, to the point of quickly becoming a staple of the Campobasso which won promotion to Serie C.
Despite his young age, the goalkeeper born in 2005 has shown that he already has what it takes to be able to impose himself even at high levels and it is no coincidence that the coach Pergolizzi gave him full trust right away. After all, Esposito played all the matches as a starter, without missing even a minute – including the last one, the one played on Sunday against Trapani which led the rossoblù to win the Serie D Scudetto (read here) – and it paid off his team with excellent performances and 17 clean sheets collected in 36 appearances on the scoresheet.
In short, it can be said that the boy originally from Minori was one of the architects of the Wolves’ return to the professional ranks. From July 1st, Esposito will return to being a Benevento footballer in all respectsto which he is linked by a technical training contract, but Campobasso will do everything to keep him in Serie C too. The contacts have already been started, there is the goalkeeper’s desire to compete in professionalism with a team he already knows, but we need to see what the via Santa Colomba club thinks of it, which must first of all aim to secure the young goalkeeper with the first contract as a professional. It is likely that in the end the green light will be given to a new temporary transfer, but for now the Samnite partnership is taking its time.
