After three seasons in which he made 73 appearances and scored four goals for the midfielder Lucia Pastrenge The time has come to say goodbye to Como Women. The class of 2002, who contributed to the promotion to Serie A and two consecutive salvations, will therefore return to Inter – who owns her registration rights – who will then decide whether to keep her or send her to grow elsewhere. Below is the footballer’s farewell to a team that welcomed her and helped her grow as a player and as a person:
“Here I am dear Como it has been an incredible journey. It is difficult to put into writing what you have been and what you have meant to me, but I will try with my heart in my hand and with my mind that retraces these magnificent years.
I arrived in Como three years ago, a young girl who left the youth team and entered the “world of grown-ups” with so many question marks but with the crazy desire to start a new adventure, I would never have imagined such a beautiful journey, realizing one of my biggest dreams: getting to Serie A, with an unimaginable ride and then staying there for two consecutive years in a unique and special way. Indelible memories that I carry with me, including my first goal with this shirt, unforgettable.
The first thank you I feel like saying is to my classmates, you took me by the hand accompanied, helped, scolded and made me grow but above all you made me the person I am now and for this I am grateful. We rejoiced, cried, suffered but above all we had so much fun, I will never forget the smiles I shared with each of you.
In particular, a special mention to my teammates who have stayed with me during every season with whom I have shared these three years, magnificent people before being a footballer, who are part of my life with whom I have created indissoluble bonds that I carry in my heart, thank you I love you.
I thank the coaches, the staff, the managers, the physiotherapists, the legendary Baffo, the doctors and the club including the president, the director and all the collaborators, for giving me the opportunity to enter this family, because the fundamental characteristic of Como is precisely this: being a family, an environment where you live football but with a smile. I hope with all my heart that this thing never changes.
With the hope of having given back even a little bit of what you left me and of having been able to honor this shirt, thank you Como Women, I carry you in my heart. One promotion, two saves. With love and so much gratitude. Your Lucia“.
