Samuele D'Agostino 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 The request is on a desk at Lumezzane, and it is not being withdrawn.

Gaetano Monachello attracts admirers
The name of Gaetano Monachello has come up in conversations Lumezzane were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Fabrizio Bartoli steps up from the Lumezzane academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Fabrizio Bartoli has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Luigi Caccavo wants to come home
“I did not go to Al-Ittihad to sit and watch. I want to come back to Lumezzane and fight for my place.” 1 appearances in 5 matches say the rest.

Samuele Diodato 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.
In brief
- Boardroom No investment in the facilities at Lumezzane
- The dugout A door opens for Stefano Filigheddu
- Squad Carlos Corona takes up the language
