The Granata President: “We have six attackers of the highest level, more Njie who is a young man of great talent. I already wanted the Cholito in 2017 but …”
The landing of Giovanni Simeone lights the dreams on a warm August night. And, while around him in Alexandria there is a mother and dad Cairo who showcases the champions of the future, the Granata president, Urban Cairo pampers the cover faces of today’s Taurus. Because together and around the Cholito there is an attacking department that has become on the explosive paper and which promises stamps. “We have a truly powerful attack, I have a great desire to see it”, reflects a very satisfied Cairo who, on the opening day of the memorial dedicated to the parents, made a gift to Toro by purchasing Simeone. “We have six attackers of the highest level, there are six for four seats thinking about the 4-2-3-1 module. I’m talking about Ngonge, Aboukhlal, Adams, Vlasic, Zapata, Simeone, but in the speech I also insert NJIE who is a young talent. So seven. We can also play with 4-4-2, and we would also have the alternatives of great quality”. Unleashed on the market, the Toro looks at the beginning of the championship with confidence and motivated to a thousand but … “I do not want to enhance myself -underlines Cairo -, I am happy that we have all these players so strong. We must ensure that this attack produces”.
the covered paper

Seven days ago, at the presentation of Baroni, he indicated the priorities on the market. He said: “A left back, an attacking outside and a covered card.” And now it can reveal: “Our goal was to take Simeone, that it was my covered card: when I talked about the covered card I thought of him. Fortunately it came, I am very happy”. And then, the reasoning can start from Cholito: “We have taken an important step -continues Cairo -, now we are really 95% of the staff (a week ago it indicated 90%, editor’s note). Mister Baroni is very happy, all very motivated: we must work so that this team gives us adequate results”. And since we think on the market, there is an idea compared to which the door does not seem closed: “Elmas’ return? Today we have many external strikers who are holders everywhere, but then we see … the market always presents surprises”.

When the speech returns to Cholito, he reveals an anecdote. “I have been following him for a lifetime, so much so that I remember that I talked about Simeone with the then president of Genoa Preziosi, in the summer of 2017, in Forte dei Marmi. I wanted to take him after his first season in Serie A, but Preziosi did not sell it to me and then he gave it to Fiorentina. I remember, even when he scored four goals with Verona at Lazio (Verona-Lazio 4-1, 24 October 2021, in the years). I used little, and I always tried to see if I could take it but they didn’t want to give it.
the rite

A particular feeling has been created between Naples and Toro. Milinkovic went to the blue, Ngonge and Cholito arrived at Philadelphia. “I spoke to De Laurentiis, because when we buy players we have a tradition: one of the two calls the other -says Cairo -. I remember that Aurelio called me when the sells Maksimovic, last year for good morning he still called me. This year, instead, I recalled him after the transfer Milinkovic and I still recalled him after Simeone and I said ‘ We felt it was when we took Verdi, who was my most expensive purchase but unfortunately he did not do well as he hoped and how I hoped. ”

On the objectives, President Cairo reiterates: “It is clear that we are here to do better and to improve ourselves after the last championship. We let the field say if the choices made were the right ones to aim higher”. There is also the space to make a joke on an evening in which it is surrounded by the whole family. They ask him if there is someone in the family who can collect his witness as president of the Toro, he replies: “It is a difficult job that of the president, I don’t know whether to wish it to one of my children -says Cairo -.
