Last 48 hours of the winter transfer window for amateur teams, although there will still be a way to land some shots among free agents and redundancies leaving the Pros. The long-awaited first reinforcements at Messina are expected in these two days, where for months they have been forced to make a virtue of necessity, making up only with internal forces for a reduced staff and the impossibility of replenishing it due to the well-known corporate events.
With the definitive transfer of the sports branch to the new Acr company and the end of the provisional exercise which imposed certain limits, the possibility of new memberships has also been enabled, with sporting director Luca Evangelisti preparing to close some operations.
The first is those linked to the attacker, in the late morning the club formalized the hiring of Giuseppe Tedesco, 28 years old, little used by Nardò and who leaves Group H of Serie D. In the past he played with Fidelis Andria, Sanremese, Cerignola, Foggia, Molfetta, Prato and Altamura. This is the top physicist (188 centimeters tall) identified together with the technical staff, to guarantee an alternative to the young Roseti but also to be able to vary the game on certain occasions, perhaps switching to 4-3-3, taking advantage of Tourè’s speed.
Another profile with which an agreement was reached is that of Mattia Matese. This is a return given that the midfielder, born in 2001, has already worn the Messina shirt in the 2021/22 season, highly appreciated by sporting director Christian Argurio and the then coach Sasà Sullo, despite suffering a serious injury in Vibo which affected his experience with the Giallorossi in Lega Pro. For him there were also stops at Casertana (in two different phases) but also Trapani and Sarnese. In this first part of the season he wore the Ancona shirt. Flexible profile, he can act as a playmaker but also as a midfielder.
Finally, the third operation that was brought to completion concerns the winger Alessio Pedicone, ex Enna, who had already joined the group for several weeks and was just waiting to be able to sign the contract. Left-handed winger identified by former sporting director Giovanni Martello, it is a request from coach Pippo Romano given that it would take up the time needed to adapt to the group, to play for a shirt on the left with a growing Bombaci. While Orlando would effectively become a reinforcement for the back trio, given that so far he has been used (adapted) mainly across the flank in the 3-5-2.
