A decidedly unexpected visit to the sports centre of Caldiero Terme, a Veneto club recently promoted to Serie C. In recent days Rafa Benitezformerly of Liverpool, Napoli, Inter, Chelsea and Real Madrid among others, who is on holiday in our country these days, visited the C club, fresh from the success in its debut on the field of Albinoleffe on the first day of the championship. The club’s sporting director spoke about it, Fabio Uglyto the microphones of TMW Radio during the broadcast All C: “The other day he came to visit us through Filippo Fusco. He was incredibly helpful, he even had a technical meeting with our coach. I was struck by the humility he had in answering our questions and in telling some of his anecdotes”.
The Caldiero ds also talks about the differences between amateurs and professionals
“I was positively struck by the organization that exists among the professionals. Coming from amateurism we arrived in a different world, but above all, having climbed several categories, we understood that this is the definitive leap. In the preparation of the match here there are many more details. Then seeing Caldiero on Sky is incredible, watching it on channel 257 was a wonderful feeling”.
Is there a difference between professionalism and amateurism on the market too?
“For me it has changed a lot because, having worked with Verona in the past, I have dealt with the young players of Primavera 1, who previously, for example, did not consider Serie D. There are completely different dynamics, but it seems to me that we have managed to move towards the objectives we wanted”.
