Filippo Oliana says no to Pro Patria
“I listened, I thought about it, and I am staying. That is the whole story.” The clubs had agreed a fee. Filippo Oliana had not agreed to go, which turned out to be the part that mattered.

The paperwork begins on Gabriele Finocchiaro
A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Carrarese have done the hard part with Juventus, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Jonas Rouhi 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 Carrarese this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

A row about effort at Carrarese
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Nikola Sekulov was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Massimo Basile steps up from the Carrarese academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Massimo Basile 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.

The Niccolò Belloni conversation is coming
Everyone has stopped pretending: Bra will make the call about Niccolò Belloni this week. Carrarese have a number in mind, and the number is not shy.

Carrarese ask about Love Arrhov
A loan enquiry to Eintracht Frankfurt: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.
The dugout14 Jun 2027
The manager makes Tommaso Rubino a promise
Nothing in writing and nothing in public: a word about playing time, given face to face at Carrarese. The team sheets over the next month will show whether it was worth having.

The Fabio Andrea Ruggeri talk will not go away
Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Carrarese know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.
