Francesco Musumeci he returned to the Pro Vercelli. Until two seasons ago he was responsible for the youth sector and the white scouting area, while now he returns with the sporting director’s stripes. “For me it’s as if it were the first day of school – he told his colleagues at La Stampa -. I have great enthusiasm, the desire to get started. I’m excited and motivated”.
Among his discoveries is Maggio who will soon land in Serie B at Reggiana: “I care a lot about young people and I have worked a lot with them during my career. Matteo Maggio is an example: the fruit of the white nursery. Of constant growth. We must continue to raise many young people, to introduce them to the first team and then allow them to take off towards important stages. The Pro must continue to be an important launching pad for the unders. I believe I was also chosen for this by president Pinciroli and its members to fill the role of sporting director: young people are a cornerstone of the club. Pro Vercelli has always believed in the unders: the green line is a philosophy.”
The first important choice is already waiting for him: “The first operation, in synergy with the club, is to blacken the manager’s position. We are talking with different profiles. We are late, it’s true, but let’s not forget that even the first year that I arrived at the Pro, in the 2020/21 season, in the midst of the pandemic, with a race against time Modesto was chosen. That season was full of emotions. Let’s hope that this delay is also a good omen.”
