Rosario Pergolizzi opens his adventure at Reggina with the presentation press conference held at Palazzo San Giorgio. The coach returns to Reggio Calabria thirty-four years after his adventure as a footballer. “Reggio Calabria – he highlighted – has given me a lot as a footballer and I hope it will give me a lot as a coach. This city – he added – is a little angry and disappointed, but through work, sacrifice and unity we can get some satisfaction. Our goal is to win this championship. There is no need to talk, but we must always keep our feet on the ground”.
No surprises on the company organizational chart front. The owner Nino Ballarino, with the president Virgilio Minniti at his side, announced the appointment of Giuseppe Praticò as the new general manager after the season as club manager. “In my first press conference I said that I would be a temporary general manager. I wanted to meet the person we wanted to represent us and be by our side”. “This year – Ballarino highlighted – the objective is only one, that is to win and reach Serie C”. It was also confirmed that Pippo Bonanno will see his duties in the sports area expanded after greetings with sports director Maurizio Pellegrino.
