"It hasn't been an easy week; we've been through terrible times. Yael's recovery was the best news we could have received. It reminded us once again that the most important game is the game of our lives." Fabio Pisacane opened the pre-Parma-Cagliari press conference by talking about Trepy , who nearly drowned in the swimming pool and whom the Rossoblu coach wanted to meet in the hospital in Sassari, immediately after he woke up, along with Muzzi and sporting director Accardi.
"What we said remains between us, otherwise it would lose its meaning. Entering an intensive care unit took me back twenty-seven years, it made me think about what happened to me," he admitted from the depths of the Crai Sport Center. "I hope he can get back on track and have a meaningful journey, better than mine. We need to be patient and calm." Pisacane himself revealed: "If what happened hadn't happened, Trepy would have started against Parma."
Now, focus is on their league debut. "Parma is an organized team with important ideas. An intense, physical team. They sold key players, but they've replaced them brilliantly," he said. "We mustn't get too carried away; we must stay calm and united," he said ahead of the match.
New signing Fadera, who underwent his medical this morning, could also be at the Tardini tomorrow evening: "It depends on the bureaucratic process for his registration." Pisacane explained: "We've been following him since last year, and I thank the club for giving me another asset. He's a player with very specific characteristics; he attacks the depth and provides width. An alternative solution based on the game plan." Is the transfer window closed? "Let's see if there are opportunities to complete the squad."
Among the players called up, Albarracín and Di Paolo will definitely be missing, as will Trepy, Idrissi, and Esposito, as well as Grandu and Akarakiri, who will be playing with the Primavera. Regarding Esposito: "This week, all my thoughts were on Yael. Esposito is not a player available, and I prefer not to talk about it," the Cagliari coach cut short.
