Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Diego Falcinelli

56 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Cittadella lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market

Francesco Amatucci asks to leave Cittadella

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

8 seasons of Luca Maniero

100 appearances across 8 seasons in these colours. Careers like that are not built any more, and Cittadella know what they have.

Squad

Real improvement from Nicolae Sula at Cittadella

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Nicolae Sula is 22, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Market

Cittadella sign Ethan Visagie for $410.0K

The paperwork is done: Ethan Visagie joins from Südtirol in a deal worth $410.0K. Now comes the harder part.

Squad

Biagio Meccariello 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 Cittadella this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Destiny Efosa Egharevba signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Destiny Efosa Egharevba commits to Cittadella for another 4 years.

Squad

Words at Cittadella training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Francesco Amatucci is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Market

The unthinkable, invoiced: Matteo Angeli sold

Palermo arrived with $2.5M and left with the best player in the building. The board will call it business; the queue at the ticket office will use other words.

Market

Francesco Amatucci 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 The request is on a desk at Cittadella, and it is not being withdrawn.

The terraces

Cittadella sell a favourite for $2.5M

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Matteo Angeli was one of the reasons people came, and $2.5M does not replace that by itself.

Squad

Tempers go at Cittadella

Lorenzo Carissoni was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Boardroom

Cittadella beat the market to Marco Giuseppe Pirrò from Udinese

Udinese will keep picking him until June and will get nothing for him after it. Marco Giuseppe Pirrò has pre-agreed a move to Cittadella, and the only people who lose in that arrangement are the ones who let the contract run down.
