Reggina is ready to take action. The ten points behind the top have not extinguished the club’s ambitions of winning the championship, which seems determined to intervene significantly in the market to move up the rankings. This is the most important data that emerged from Tuesday’s press conference, which was attended by the general director Giuseppe Praticò and the director of the technical area Giuseppe Bonanno. Their intervention did not calm the environment, but hearing the voice of the management offered a demonstration of presence in the face of long silences that have never been good for the perception of society in the city. The deficit classification remains, as do some movements that reject the summer purchasing campaign. Even a little surprising. Montalto has already resigned and moved to Pistoiese and, according to Bonanno’s press conference, Blondett is also leaving. They were two players from whom a lot was expected both because they had already done very well in Reggio and because they were profiles used to playing in higher categories.
However, the next phase has already begun for Reggina, considering that on Sunday against Athletic Palermo Adejo will probably play in defense and Ferraro in attack. The two exits open up space for the need to intervene with two important signings ready to replace them. It is probable that Reggina will decide to move also and above all with Torrisi’s indications. Sartore, who had worked with the coach in Trapani, has already been hired. Among the three-four profiles that Reggina are monitoring as center forwards there is also Boubacar Samake. 11 appearances and 8 goals at the start of the season with Igea Virtus, but also double figures also reached with Torrisi’s granata in the 2023-2024 season. It remains to be seen whether Reggina will eventually be able to convince the Sicilian club to let go of one of its greatest strengths. In addition to a high-level defender to replace Blondett, a midfielder and some unders are also expected. One will be the goalkeeper born in 2006 Gianmarco Summa. All that’s missing is the announcement, he started the season with Fidelis Andria (6 appearances) and had already been in the youth team of Reggina.
The group is trying to unite. On Tuesday evening there was a dinner attended by all the management (including Ballarino and Minniti), the technical staff and the team. Already on Sunday there is a crucial match in which we need to find victory. Today from the outside the climb, beyond the situation in the rankings, appears very steep. There is not a climate of great confidence in Reggio, Reggina still has the obligation to believe in the undertaking.
