Furlan and Fink present the “new” FC Südtirol

...the goalkeepers

Hannes Fink: “Coser was already part of our team last season. Marcone also played for FCS years ago. They have a lot of experience and stand for absolute quality, so I have no concerns about that.”

…the defenders

Alessandro Furlan: “The defense could be our showpiece. Here we have a good mix of experienced third division players, such as Bassoli and Tait, and young, talented players.”

Finch : “Let’s not forget new signing Di Nunzio, who made a very good impression on me in the first training sessions. With his experience he will help us immediately.”

...the midfielders

Finch: “They are the absolute stars in the team, starting with Furlan and Fink (laughs). No, seriously: I think we are very well positioned here too. We have double staff in every position.”

Furlan : “I can only agree, we are six players for three positions. Everyone is at about the same level. In the end, the coach is spoiled for choice.”

…the strikers

Finch: “Here too, the club relies on tried and tested forces with Tulli, Gliozzi and Spagnoli. Our strikers are particularly physically strong, starting with Sparacello and the most recent newcomer (Ciurria, editor's note). They will demand everything from the opposing defenders.”

...the new guys in the squad

Furlan: “You were carefully chosen by sporting director Piazzi. You can tell that they fit into our team very well, not just athletically, but above all personally. A lot of attention was paid to the overall structure.”

…the departures

Furlan : “If players want to leave the club, it is better for everyone involved to let them go. Since they were all replaced equally, we have not lost any quality. On the contrary: the cohesion in the team is better than it was a year ago.”

…the trainer Finch: “He is very well prepared, works meticulously on every single detail and gives the players very precise instructions. You can tell straight away that he wants to achieve something here.” Furlan: “I can only agree with Hannes. Our coach really has a very strong personality, his drive is contagious. In particular, his communication with the players is much better and more open than under Stroppa. I am convinced that we have a successful season ahead of us.”
