A joint training session was supposed to take place between Naples and Castel di Sangro in conjunction with the second tranche of the retreat of the Italian champions. But in the end, with enormous disappointment of the Abruzzo players who play in Excellence, the test was skipped.
To report it, yesterday in a post on facebook, the president of Castel Di Sangro Andrea Di Tora: “As President and therefore as the first representative of Castel di Sangro Calcio, I feel immense regret and dismay for what happened this afternoon at the Patini Stadium in Castel di Sangro.
There had been plans (for some time now) for a joint training session between Castel di Sangro Calcio and the Napoli Calcio.Everything was perfectly organized, so much so that yesterday afternoon (as is usual before a match) there was an exchange of emails between the two clubs (Castel di Sangro and Napoli) regarding the colors of their respective game uniforms to be worn, also communicating to Napoli Calcio all the players called up (players and managers) as requested by them”, writes the Abruzzese owner on Facebook.
“Then what happens?
At the last – concludes Di Tora – today everything falls apart for unknown reasons; our boys, several of whom are international, came with so much enthusiasm, supporting various economic expenses to the detriment of the company. But I wonder where it has been seen that a host city does not play a friendly match?
So much so that Napoli Calcio has started its retreat in Trentino and is playing its first friendly match with a local Eccellenza team (Anaune Val Di Non).
But this is standard practice, except in Castel di Sangro where the Mayor He is totally disinterested in football when these things are organized in the planning of the summer retreat and not picking up the last little treats. We were treated like dogs.
All the sportsmen of Castello are bitter. You are happy dear Mayor, we are all happy…”.
