“All the choices regarding the sporting part will be up to Paolo and the idea of taking Dossena as coach also came from him himself. Dossena seems to me to have the characteristics we need. Someone who works hard and asks a lot of his players. He performed a miracle in Vercelli by bringing a 1 million staff to the playoffs. We spent 6.5 and you know very well how it ended.” The president of SPAL Joe Tacopina during a long press conference he announced the name of the coach who will lead the team next season in his place Domenico Di Carlo which has not been confirmed.
The Este number one then took stock of the last year and his management, much criticized by the fans who also contested it the other day: “In recent months we have started to plan the foundations for the future, investments have been 30 million in three years and we are decidedly unhappy with the results we have obtained from this economic effort. – reports Lospallino.com – We understood that we needed a change first of all in the people at the head of the company to give new energy to the project. We made mistakes in selecting who worked here before. I fully accept responsibility for these mistakes, but I have no intention of giving up. My knees don’t tremble, I’m not afraid of failure. This club deserves more, the fans, the city deserve more and I want satisfaction to come.”
Then there is room for the new course with changes also in management with the arrivals of Luca Carra as general manager e Paolo Danzè as sporting director: “Carra is the new general manager and will be operational from 1 July. I know him thanks to Dante Scibilia and he is a successful manager who has worked for important companies. He has all the credentials and experience to guide us towards a new path. – continues Tacopina – The decision regarding the sporting director was the most delicate. We need to build a corporate and sporting culture, developing a strong identity. After the continuous rotations in the past we have included Paolo Danzè and I think he is an ideal professional to develop this purpose. I realize that his profile is a little different from the others, you can’t say he’s the classic DS, he speaks six languages, has a degree in economics and a master’s degree from Bocconi and comes from a company that I admire enormously. But beyond that he knows Serie C well because part of his job at Milan was to identify the destinations for the boys to send on loan. Spending time with him I understood how deeply familiar he is with the dynamics of Serie C.”
