“Spezia at work for Bertola and Cassata: renewals in sight”he writes this morning The 19th Century. The Ligurian club is planning to stabilize some key contractual situations, in particular those concerning Nicolò Bertola and Francesco Cassata. As for Bertola, currently playing with the Under-21 national team, the defender has received a four-year renewal offer, as his contract expires in June. The offer includes an economic adjustment and the inclusion of a release clause which, similar to that applied for other players such as Nzola and Verde, would allow Bertola to leave the club without complications, in case of interest from other teams.
Francesco Cassata’s situation instead seems simpler to resolve. The midfielder, born in San Terenzo, has demonstrated a strong bond with Spezia and the extension of his contract now appears to be a formality. According to reports, the agreement to extend his contract until June 2027 is now imminent, reflecting his increasingly central role in the team’s technical project.
Both renewals represent a clear signal of the club’s desire to build a competitive team, retaining key players for the long term. The discussion between Bertola’s agent and the Spezia management should take place shortly, with the hope of quickly concluding this agreement too.
