Spice, controversial farewell of Julius Major

Giulio Maggiore is a new player at Salernitana. The midfielder wanted to say goodbye to Spezia with a post on Instagram, in which he does not hide some barbs: “Dear Spezia, ours is a unique, indissoluble history that nothing and no one will ever be able to destroy. There would be so many things to tell that have happened in this last year, but I think that even this time the tale of the a emotions and joys experienced in my 6 years in the first team, with the jersey of my city should prevail.”

“I just want to say that many things leaked in recent months regarding the renewal of the contract do not correspond to reality, unfortunately there were not the conditions to continue but to attribute solely to me the responsibility I do not think is correct and above all I do not think I deserve it. I believe that in a long journey as mine has been can happen unpleasant episodes, unclear and easily misinterpreted, but I assure you that I have always tried to act with fairness and loyalty, I have always taken my responsibilities on and off the field. I take this opportunity to thank all of Spezia Calcio, my second family that gave me the opportunity to realize the dream I had since childhood, to cheer under the railway curve. That said, what I want to preserve most of all is the enormous affection that has linked me to the people of La Spezia, to the people of the Picco.”

“How much love you have given me! I still remember my first matches at the Picco and that fantastic chorus that left me speechless: ‘ole ole ole ole giulioo giulioooo.’ I hope I have reciprocated all that on the field. Always honoring the jersey and always fighting for these colors. The last year I wore the captain’s armband in every stadium in Italy, a armband that I have earned over the years, with hard work and humility and that as a La Spezzino has an exaggerated and indescribable symbolic value. Well yes, history comes to an end and as I write these lines I can’t hold back the emotion, because so many images of these years pass through my mind. Comrades, coaches, directors, physiotherapists, warehouse workers, employees of the club who are friends today. I want to thank you one by one, truly from the heart. Years in B, the fantastic promotion, two salvations in Serie A. 188 games, 18 goals. How wonderful guys! To all the fans and all the people of La Spezia, thank you! You are special, I am and will forever remain one of you!” he wrote.
