The technician of the last two saves has signed a contract of 650 thousand euros after discussing the details on the staff
UDINE. There is the signature. Luca Gotti he will still be the Udinese coach and the decision is not the result of a night spent watching the exploits of Rodrigo De Paul in the guise of assistman in the 2-2 of Argentina with Colombia. Gino Pozzo had decided a few days ago to continue with Contarina’s coach, after evaluating for two weeks the pros and cons of a renewal that had been questioned by the Bianconeri’s championship final, by those eight defeats (and a draw) in the last eleven days, when only the victories with Benevento and Crotone arrived, decisive for salvation from the arithmetic point of view, but in any case obtained with two teams that in the end ended the season with relegation to B.
The excuse of the many injuries was not negligible, ultimately Gotti closed the second round with very few forwards available, but Gino Pozzo still judged Udinese’s final rush insufficient, especially from the point of view of attitude, of the attention, as evidenced by the avalanche of penalties granted to the opponents, some really bloody, so much so that Turin and Cagliari won the three points thanks to a penalty.
Also for this reason the Juventus club has plumbed the coaches market to evaluate the possible alternatives, essentially three. The first represented by an emerging from the B series, that Paolo Zanetti who, however, did so well in his job that he closed the season with the promotion to Serie A of his Venezia and with the confirmation on the lagoon bench, with an extension of the contract until 2024. The second and third with two coaches returning from a year not really happy in the top flight: Rolando Maran, already exonerated from Genoa in the first round, e Pippo Inzaghi, punished by a disappointing return that cost his Benevento relegation. Both were asking for a two-year course that would also involve the personal staff. Moral of the story: a lot of expense, but the yield.
At this point the chances of renewal for Gotti have soared, Gotti who meanwhile had made it clear to the club that he was willing to accept another annual contract like the one formed last summer at 650 thousand euros per season with an automatic renewal option in the hands of the club, an option that Pozzo expired last February to evaluate the team’s response in the championship final.
And so the discussion moved to the composition of the staff that will accompany the Contarina technician. There he wants to affect the Juventus owners convinced that fate is not the only cause of the many injuries, for example. The athletic trainer will change, Udinese, who do not want to renew the contract a Giovanni Brignardello, but there could be other changes in the corporate staff. This was discussed in the last few days before the expected signature.
