Another sensation? Salernitana held on thanks to a great finish in the top flight and can dream of interesting reinforcements. The president himself would like to bring in a big star of world football.
After 23 long years, the team from Campania, specifically from Salerno, a city of around 135,000 inhabitants, has returned to the top flight. And for a very long time it looked like it was just a one-year affair.
But the end of the season was a success for Salernitana. It hasn’t lost in seven of its last eight games, even picking up four wins. But it was a big drama. All it took was for the results of the other games to turn out differently, and things could have been different.
Salernitana lost the last round 0:4 to Udinese, but Cagliari couldn’t win their match so there was nothing to worry about. The team from Campania was happy and celebrated even after the debacle. An unusual sight, but a beautiful one nonetheless.
Franck Ribéry, who came to the club in September as a free agent as a big signing, also helped the team to save the day. The fans celebrated him greatly, understandably. It’s not every day that a player this big and great plays in Salerno. However, he has been plagued by health problems this season, and age is starting to take its toll on his performances.
Ribéry is now 39 years old and it is questionable whether he will continue to play for Salernitana. It is also uncertain whether he will even want to continue his playing career.
Even if he doesn’t, the club boss already has his sights set on another star. His dream is to bring in Edinson Cavani from Manchester United, a former PSG or Napoli star who is also from the Campania region. The star striker will be without a contract, so he could come for free.
But that’s not all. “I’ll say two names that seem impossible, but if it’s possible and the coach agrees, I would try to sign them. Edinson Cavani, who has left an unforgettable mark in this region, and Marko Arnautovic, who is the epitome of a warrior,” Danilo Iervolinoexpressed.
