Thomas Frendo: “My return has been carefully considered”

Thomas Frendo is rushing from one appointment to the next these days. He has just taken the last exam of this semester at the university in Verona, a few days ago he appeared at the Virtus Verona club headquarters to confirm his departure and then he also had to look for a new club. He has now found this. From Virtus Verona he is now going to Virtus from Bozen. “We will clarify the final details at the weekend,” reveals the 25-year-old South Tyrolean, who explains his decision as follows: “The return to Bolzano has been carefully considered. I had two wonderful years in Verona. The promotion to the Lega Pro will never be forgotten. It's a shame that it wasn't enough to stay in the league in the end. We had a really great group, made up primarily of students. However, I have to set other priorities now. My university degree takes priority.”

After his 28 championship appearances and four goals last season, Frendo drew a line. Also for health reasons, as he himself emphasizes: “There is simply no more possible. The many training sessions took a toll on my knee.”

Return to the roots

After two years in Veneto, the defensive all-rounder who is strong in the air is returning to the top league. He has already played there for Salurn and Fersina in the past. At Virtus Don Bosco he meets several old acquaintances. “I’m looking forward to seeing Daniele Speziale again, who already played with me in Verona. He is one of my best friends. I have also already played with Tulipano. I’m also looking forward to working with coach Roberto Cortese,” said Frendo

Aim high with Virtus The man from Bolzano is enthusiastic about Virtus Don Bosco's chosen path: “I was also in contact with Bozen FC and Eppan, but Virtus' project simply convinced me. The club wants to be at the forefront in the long term, although other teams will certainly be favorites this season. However, we will certainly put one or two exclamation points.”
