TREVISO
«Too many 52 under contract? Even if it will be a season with fewer matches and with breaks when the national team plays, unexpected events always happen ». Diesse Antonio Pavanello is the architect of this Benettonian mega roster, an insurance policy especially against accidents. «Let’s say that, as far as permit players are concerned, we believe in young people at a high level thanks to the four academic years. Monitoring them was not so easy, we often invited them to the Ghirada during the season. On July 19, the day of the meeting, maybe some will be missing because they are involved in the Six Nations U20, but this is the squad. We are extremely happy to further expand the number of permit players involved in view of the next sporting season. In the last four years the “project” has given us a lot of satisfaction, moreover most of the guys who arrived as permit managed to get a senior contract and if they didn’t succeed after the first season, they did it later. What will happen will be an important addition of young people with whom we want to start a path and continue in our project that sees them thus becoming part of a sort of Academy. The number of players selected this year is considerable and the roles covered are different; once we have received the final guidelines from the Fir, we will also finalize the agreements with the Top10 companies for the registration of athletes. In this regard, our most heartfelt thanks go to the Top 10 clubs because they are the ones who make it possible to complete the sports plan that involves these guys ». –
