The new Cagliari coach ready: he signs for a year with renewal of the contract in case of immediate promotion to A.

CAGLIARI. Fabio Liverani ready to lead the refoundation project. Agreement reached: for the coach, who in Cagliari began to make it clear how good he was in midfield, there is a one-year contract plus automatic renewal in case of promotion. A word spoken, this, almost in a whisper. But it is a formula that heartens the rossoblu fans: even without proclamations, there are some ambitions.

Now it’s official: from 1 July he will take over the technical leadership of the first team. Before it is not possible, due to issues related to the old contract with Parma. But it is clear that the work for the construction of the new team begins immediately with the indication of the characteristics of the players suitable for his favorite modules, 4-3-3 or 4-3-1-2. And with the preferences for the retreat that, in any case, he should leave at home, right from the beginning of July. There is also the staff. The assistant coach will be Cesare Bovo.

Surprise among the technical collaborators: together with Federico Fabellini and Giuseppe Capello (match analyst) there is also Fabio Pisacane, who returns to the rossoblù after six seasons as a footballer. Goalkeeper coach Walter Bressan. The athletic trainers will be Maurizio Cantarelli and Mauro Baldus, with Francesco Fois dedicated to injury recovery.

The new Liverani era began with the arrival at Elmas airport. And the first words as a technician ready to accept the job: “Nice sensations – he said quickly answering the first questions – I arrive here with a positive spirit, there is a long way to go”. Phrases still not as an “official” coach, because the agreement was reached in the afternoon. Accompanied by his agent, Liverani visited the sports center in Assemini together with, among others, director Stefano Capozucca and CEO Mario Passetti.

From the field to business: there was already an agreement in principle and the agreement was a formality. Then padel: Liverani is among the top athletes participating in a tournament in Forte Village. Rackets, then also supervision of the transfer market. With the awareness that the team is all to be redone. The first to leave should be Bellanova, heading towards Inter. If anything, Liverani will be called upon to evaluate any loans proposed by the Nerazzurri, starting with Cesare Casadei, 14 goals in the Primavera, followed by clubs in Serie A and halfway through Serie B. Thanks to Bellanova, however, Cagliari could be on pole. The closing of the loans with Vicario, Simeone and Tramoni fine pieces that should remain (for now) in Empoli, Verona and Brescia are in the pipeline. But Juve is doing a thought on Cholito. With the suitcases also Cragno, Marin, Rog, Joao Pedro and Pereiro.
