The mayor Franz Caruso He met the doctor at Palazzo dei Bruzi Rita Rachele Scaliseadministrator of Cosenza Calcio, to define the question of the license of the use of the municipal stadium “San Vito-Marulla”, in view of the imminent registration of Cosenza Calcio at the next Serie C championship.
“Following an express request – said the mayor Franz Caruso – I met Dr. Scalise’s Palazzo dei Bruzi this morning. It was an institutional, formal meeting, and that it took place as I expected. We limited ourselves to discussing the license of use of the stadium for the next Serie C championship. An authorization that I granted, without any reserve, for the city and I will never have anything. Franz Caruso – who can affect the team compared to the path that we want to do it.
And the mayor remarked him clearly to the Cosenza Calcio administrator. “My hope is that you sell, to close a dark parenthesis of a story that I honestly did not think it could be managed in this way and for how the company managed it”.
Dr. Scalise underlined that “the company belongs to a group and that the company was made by the company, also from the financial point of view, to keep the team in Serie B, as the impossible is being done to define the negotiations of the sale of the corporate team. But the company – he pointed out, finally – like all football clubs, is a private club and the times for these procedures are not very fast”.
Before closing the short meeting, the mayor Franz Caruso, remembering the attitude of great availability towards the company that administers Cosenza Calcio, remarked that he has never entered the corporate issues in 3 years and that he has never made invasions of the field. “There is a small peculiarity, not at all negligible – reiterated Franz Caruso – and this is this: that The team is called Cosenza and this is exactly what makes the city’s heritage team from a sporting point of view. I believe that those who manage an important football team like ours and that it bears the name of the city have some more duty towards the city, fans and the administration of the city, in particular of the mayor. Unfortunately, With regret I must say that this sensitivity has not been there and that is why I hope that a transfer of the company will proceed In order for the conditions for a pacification between the team, the city and the province, also because at this particular moment, the daily stresses come to me from the province and not only from the fans, but also by ordinary people “.
