Francesco Migliardi 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 The request is on a desk at Dolomiti Bellunesi, and it is not being withdrawn.

Nobody has barred the club from spending; it simply has nothing to spend that it has not first raised. Every incoming name comes with an outgoing one attached.

Luca Milesi goes back to face AlbinoLeffe
Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Luca Milesi’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Dolomiti Bellunesi needing him to play as if none of it matters.
