“Reduction of the exit clause, further adjustment of the economic relationship. Study on a possible year more than the four proposed. But above all the decision not to move the player, whether sold or if he refuses the renewal, in January 2025, keeping him until June in any case”. This, as reported The 19th Centuryis Spezia’s position towards the central defender Nicolò Bertolaamong the happiest notes – also for his offensive production – of the start of the season in Liguria.
The Spezia management has been working for some time to secure the 2003 class, who boasts many admirers in Serie A – Inter, Bologna and Monza, Turin and Fiorentina are the interested clubs – and not lose him at no cost next summer when the international’s contract under 21 will expire. The sports director Stefano Melissano has already put forward its proposal, revised three times under the supervision of president Philip Platek, and is always waiting for a signal from Tullio Tinti And Manuel Montipothe boy’s agents, who would like a reduction in the cost of the exit clause in favor of a big club in order to find a meeting point between the parties.
We therefore continue to work on the clause, initially expected at 4.5 million, and the salary, 300 thousand plus bonuses, the improved offer compared to the current approximately 130 thousandalso trying to heal the fracture that opened in the summer when the former manager Eduardo Macia he had practically reached an agreement for his transfer to Venezia for 1.2 million plus the goalkeeper’s fee Bruno Bertinato. A transfer that did not materialize with Melissano who in recent months has tried to approach the requests of the player’s agents and try to convince them to sign the renewal. The only certainty at the moment is that Bertola, whatever happens, will remain in the white jersey until June and then we’ll see.
