Bari, Magalini: “Maita wanted to leave, now he remains convinced and happy. Lulic is leaving”

Joseph MagaliniBari’s sporting director, who spoke at a press conference today to talk about the transfer market session that has just ended, also spoke about some individual cases. These are his words collected by TuttoBari.com:

Never?
“I knew him as a player and I was very happy to have him in Bari. During the summer he had some offers and he told me about them in a very polite way. I told him that we had no intention of selling him. The boy was convinced he was going to leave and had expressed this desire. We then started negotiations with this club that wanted him but we couldn’t find an agreement. Now he’s back in the ranks, he understood how much we wanted to keep him with us and now he’s happy with us”.

Lulic?
“He’s still on the way out. We’re looking for a solution with a foreign team. We’re trying to get him out.”

Ricci and Trripaldelli?
Ricci, a very good player in my opinion, was out of contract. He asked us for a renewal at the beginning of the retreat, we also talked about it in Roccaraso with the agent. We were unable to find a quick agreement. Then, the coach also made other choices, preferring other players. He asked us to sell him and we found a quick solution. Tripaldelli is a player I know very well from his time at Juventus and Cagliari. We didn’t have much difficulty bringing him here”.

Coli Saco?
“I’ve been following him closely for two years now. We took him because the opportunity to sell Lulic arose. We were having trouble with the under and over list. This opportunity came at the last minute and we took advantage of it.”

Sparkles?
“We’ve been talking about it since the beginning of the summer. He had three clubs that wanted him, but we’re happy to have brought him here.”
