Market28 Jun 2027

Leonardo Pezzola puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Sambenedettese, and it is not being withdrawn.

Transfer targets28 Jun 2027

Sambenedettese rebuffed over Leonardo Candellone

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Juve Stabia have kept their man, and Sambenedettese go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad28 Jun 2027

The step up is real for Tommaso Orsini

At 20 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Market28 Jun 2027

Alessandro Maspero has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Sambenedettese they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad28 Jun 2027

A falling-out at Sambenedettese

Leandro Chaparro and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad28 Jun 2027

A row about effort at Sambenedettese

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Kevin Martins was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Squad28 Jun 2027

Giovanni Cultraro signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Giovanni Cultraro commits to Sambenedettese for another 3 years.

The dugout28 Jun 2027

No hiding place for Vittorio Parigini

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Vittorio Parigini, and the manager let it.

Market28 Jun 2027

The shop window has Moussa Touré in it

Sambenedettese have let the market know Moussa Touré can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.

Squad31 May 2027

Real improvement from Tommaso Orsini at Sambenedettese

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Tommaso Orsini is 20, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Market31 May 2027

Only the photograph left for Alessandro Maspero

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Alessandro Maspero will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Sambenedettese the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad31 May 2027

Words exchanged at Sambenedettese

Tommaso Orsini and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad31 May 2027

A row about effort at Sambenedettese

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Tomas Lepri was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout31 May 2027

Vittorio Parigini has been promised minutes

A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Vittorio Parigini has written the date down.

The dugout31 May 2027

Simone Magnaghi knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Sambenedettese, and both men came out saying it was fine.

The dugout10 May 2027

Mirko Chelli says Sambenedettese went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad10 May 2027

Yago Santiago in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Sambenedettese this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

A row about effort at Sambenedettese

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Tomas Lepri was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

One of our own: Arturo Bernardi joins the Sambenedettese first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Arturo Bernardi is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

The dugout10 May 2027

Moussa Touré gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match10 May 2027

Sambenedettese in the hunt for Europe

Position 4, 64 points, and a run-in that decides whether next season has Thursday nights in it. Nobody is calling it a race yet, which is what people say during one.
