what the granata sporting director said

The atmosphere in the Granata home is once again heated after the words of the technical director on the possible transfer market and the defeat against Inter

“Don’t make fun of us Vagnati, make a competitive team”. Already at the end of August there was a tough situation protest against the Granata supporters towards the company. The transfer market issue continues to warm the souls of Torino fans who, after losing Buongiorno and Bellanova in defence, fear losing even those big players who so far are keeping Vanoli’s team up in the standings, despite the defeat at the last minute blood against Inter 3-2 at the Meazza. A concern that arises from the words said yesterday by sporting director Vagnati.

Vagnati on Adams: “He has the qualities for big clubs”

The sporting director of Turin, David Vagnatimade some statements a few minutes before kick-off of the match between Inter and Torino. Interviewed by DAZN, Vagnati spoke about the team’s preparation and Tyler Chè Adams, midfielder who arrived during the summer transfer market: “Adams played a lot of the Premier Leaguenot only in the second division, and he is an extraordinary player. We worked a lot to bring him here to Turin, because I am convinced that he has the qualities to also play in big clubs, both in Italy and abroad”.

Vagnati, Adams is only passing through in Turin

Always about Tyler AdamsVagnati also spoke to Sky Sport, explaining how he had followed the player since his time in the Premier League and had tried to sign him in the previous winter transfer market: “I followed him in the Premier LeagueI had already tried to get it in January, but they asked us for one very high figure. We worked to convince him that a passage to Italy it would have been an excellent step to then return to the Premier League or go to even more important clubs. He has great qualities.”

Turin, Samuele Ricci and the interest of Manchester City

In addition to Adams, Vagnati spoke about the young midfielder Samuele Ricciwho is impressing both in Vanoli’s Turin and in the Italian national team under the guidance of Luciano Spalletti. According to some rumors, Ricci would have ended up in the sights of Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.

Vagnati commented on the interest of the English thus: “I don’t want to talk about Manchester or not. It’s nice to remember the purchase of Riccihe was very young and we had a major operation. The president believed in it, as did all of us, and we spent a significant amount. The boy worked a lot and grew a lot. I think he can play with any coach and in any league.”

Granata fans reject Vagnati as manager of Torino

The Torino fans are furious: “I think the thing that the people of Turin suffer the most is the post-Europa League. Torino had everything to make an Atalanta-style journeybut it became an Udinese. Now there’s Vanoli who gives play and courage, but the level always remains there.” And again: “But then he’s basically right. It’s just that it’s hard to face reality and we like to wallow in hypocrisy. And I’m not talking about the Torino fan, but about all Italian populism. Both in sport and in the essential things of life. Italy is a country in decline.”

There are those who write: “Cairo doesn’t care about going to Europe and doing well, he took Taurus to make himself known 19 years ago. Today he understood the game, buys at zero sells players at triplehe earns 60k and reinvests 10…” And again: “He told the truth. As long as there is a president who doesn’t take out a single euro…”

Then there are those who demand his resignation: “He must disappear immediately, resignation or kick in the ass.” And again: “In any other club he would be fired on the spot… at Toro his contract will certainly be renewed with a salary increase attached!!!”

The anger on the web does not subside: “I don’t know what went through his head. A normal president would have already fired him. Unfortunately ours thinks like Vagnati.” And finally: “It’s serious that you speak like this about Toro obviously. And do we want to talk about the fact that in January he went from Adams to Okereke on loan?”
