Alessandro Marino inaugurates the usual press conference at the beginning of the year by making Andrea Schiavone official, the first purchase of the January transfer market.
" He is a superior category player : the fact that he chose Olbia is a tangible sign that there is a planning basis that convinced him to choose this place rather than another, and is therefore a good sign", began the president this morning of Olbia in a long chat with journalists, during which he took stock of the Serie C championship of the whites, penultimate at the halfway point, and spoke about the future in enthusiastic tones. «The fans must be happy not with the ranking we have, but with the point at which we are at a club level: improving our ranking is the short-term objective , after which», explained Marino, «we cannot help but be excited for the project that we have studied together with the new ownership of SwissPro, which will lead Olbia to compete for more important goals than those that I have managed to achieve in 8 years ."
The new stadium will be fundamental. «2024 will be the year in which the most progress will be made», assures the number one of the whites. "I wouldn't be surprised if in 3 or 4 years we had already started work on the new plant." Likewise, maintaining the category will be fundamental. «As far as the transfer market is concerned, we are active, and Schiavone's hiring is an example of this, but my regret comes from the fact that this team's potential is worth more than the 17 points scored, and if someone comes it will be because it is an opportunity , not because we don't trust the players we have: we must not feel sorry for ourselves but look to the future with enthusiasm", said Olbia's top manager.
Who concluded like this: « Leandro Greco is a capable and intelligent coach , and I expect improvements from Sunday in Cesena: 19 games remain until the end of the championship, we can't waste even one».
