Maurizio Setti and the possible sale of Hellas Verona. During today’s press conference, he was asked several questions on the topic: “There has never been anything concrete and true, just approaches, the club is open to opportunities, if the equity partner arrives, welcome , if a wealthy person arrives who can lead the club to improved results, I’m welcome, I don’t have almond-shaped eyes, I’m not a fund, I don’t have the financial possibilities to achieve top six place championships but I think I have demonstrated in recent years the football that I can afford to the maximum. What I can promise our fans is that we must understand where this reality falls, so if no one has done it before, you have to ask yourself some questions. then if someone arrives who can improve the situation and lead the club to fight for other objectives, I’m open to it.”
How much is Verona worth?
“There are many parameters, it is a club with a great history, with a splendid city, a base of fans, an important player pool, anyone who wants to approach still has parameters to respect, today it would be difficult to say a figure.”
In the summer, however, you were negotiating the sale of the club…
“The negotiations seemed real, true, it’s a good story but I’ll tell you about it later when I can. Football has changed, it’s no longer the nostalgic one of Mazzola or Rivera”.
So Verona won’t sell him?
“Today I feel alone, I have built important relationships with everyone, I think I can be at the table with any negotiation but at the moment there has been no approach with any investor”.
