Salernitana, Martusciello now works on defense

The concentrated gaze. The eyes fixed on the movements of his defense, a department to refine in the mechanisms by relying on the care of work. Giovanni Martusciello is a man of obsessive attention, especially for the movements of his defensive line: high, aggressive, always courageous like the nature of his team. An attitude that has cost, due to some individual blunders, a few too many goals, for a defense that has already been pierced ten times in the five official matches, preventing Sepe from centering his first clean sheet. Work is needed but also experience. The absence of Bronn and Stojanovic due to national teams opens up reflections and above all allows for experimentation. In today’s double session Martusciello sent signals, imagining that he can count on the experience of Jaroszynski and Ghiglione on the lanes but above all on Ferrari in the center. The former Sassuolo player will compete for a place with Velthuis, a Dutchman who has struggled in this start but was pampered by the sports director Petrachi in a press conference: «He doesn’t know the language and the metrics of the coach, we have to wait for him. Bremer didn’t see the field for six months. The problem is that we couldn’t wait: we had to take them and throw them into the mix because we didn’t have anyone else and we didn’t like the ones we had». Between the two sessions, yesterday the Granata team met with a delegation from the Italian Footballers’ Association with updates on contracts, end-of-career fund, post-career training, pensions and mandatory insurance.
