Lecce, Pantaleo Corvino takes stock of the market

On the occasion of the official presentation of Andy Pelmard, in a press conference, Lecce’s Dt Pantaleo Corvino, among the various topics discussed, wanted to take stock of the market and the missing pieces to complete the roster available to coach Luca Gotti.

"Today we presented Pelmard, who fills the right-back box. Coulibaly will be made official as soon as he finishes his medical examinations in the late morning. We have completed a very competitive department, with substance, muscle and physicalityà. In every market session our goal è is always to try to grow. Last year we had deficiencies in the aerial game and we took two strong players up front like Pierret and Gaspar. Now we still lack something. We need to find a deputy Krstovic and another defender for the bench, but the center back market è very difficult" began the Lecce Dt.

"Certainly è the number of good players has decreased and at the same time the number of suitors looking for good players has increased. Before, people waited until the last day to come to Italy, now the market has è widened and there is no longer this aspiration. The one who is best gets the one who has the most coin" added the Italian sports executive.

"Pelmard’s prsentation sounds like a copy-paste of when I introduced Gendrey. He was also a Frenchman with a background in the French youth national team. Andy comes from a club that is now in B that was in Ligue 1 last year. He's a player who can play several roles and in the last league è he was the sixth best for miles made. This shows that he will be more useful as an outside player. We have taken him on loan with an obligation to redeem in case of salvation plus a certain number of appearances" Pantaleo Corvino commented.
