The National Amateur League launches the dates of the 2024/25 Serie D championship, starting on 8 September with the first day. But the season will start two weeks earlier, on August 25, with the Italian Cup.
On September 14th it will be the turn of the National Junior Championship. The dimension that awaits Olbia begins to take shape with the first matches on the pitch. While the rivals begin to organise, starting from the bench, the moves of the Gallura club, fresh from direct relegation from Serie C after 8 years of professionalism, nothing is known. Except that the negotiations with Roberto Felleca, who would like to join the SwissPro-branded Olbia to manage the sports project, would have stopped before starting, and that the Swiss owners would have started talks for the new coach, entrusted to the consultant Ninni Corda.
All in the field of unofficialness, which worries the fans quite a bit. Since 30 April and the press conference in which Benno Räber and Klaus Schwerdtfeger, members of the Olbia Calcio board of directors, announced that they had discovered that the club's debt exposure was more important than they believed and was evident from the papers signed at the time of acquisition of 70 percent of the shares from the former president Alessandro Marino and partners (Gian Renzo Bazzu and Alexandre Tartara), but that Olbia was not at risk of bankruptcy and that the money to face the next championship was there, no one has anymore spoke.
“We are working” is the maximum comment that can be elicited from those directly involved, who, on the one hand, are committed to repaying debts and paying the salaries of administrators, and on the other, are preparing to face the deadlines of 10 July, the by which they will have to pay the salaries of players and members of the technical staff and register for the Serie D championship.
All without a sports manager who can start planning the season, from the pre-season training camp to the construction of the team, which, by regulation, must be fielded compulsorily with three unders, and specifically with a player born after 1 January 2004 , one after January 1, 2005 and one after January 1, 2006.
