PISA KNASTER CITY FANS – Alexander Knaster, patron of the Pisa, he told the reasons that led him to buy the Tuscan company. Words that can be found in a book, written by Sergio Costa, in which the history of Pisa Calcio is told. Here are his words, reported by The nation.

On the choice of Pisa: “What convinced me to focus on Pisa and not on other football clubs were several factors. I found a well-organized company with reliable people who have initiated shareable and forward-looking projects. I was especially encouraged by our common vision – continues Knaster -. That the company was only at the beginning of its path towards the best goals was for me one more reason, because this condition implied more opportunities for growth “.

On the city: “Here I found a splendid city, an efficient administration and enviable supporters – says the owner of 75% of the shares of Pisa -. The city welcomed me with great enthusiasm and I am more and more convinced that I made the right choice. My investment is aimed at the path taken by the previous owner, trying to support the company in continuing the team with new sporting goals and more – continues Knaster -. The purchase of the Pisa Sporting Club in January 2021 was a source of great pride for me, also because it put me in contact with an important and famous city all over the world and with a historic club like that of the Nerazzurri “. Knaster reveals his choice to leave Corrado in command: “I also kept the previous management from the president Giuseppe Corrado – concludes Alexander Knaster -, to facilitate the company in the process of modernizing its infrastructures according to a shared vision”.

The words of the former owner Enzo Ricci: “I was not immediately in favor of the sale, because you might want to renovate the Arena, build a sports center with football fields, a guesthouse for the youth sector and more. Precisely on the real estate part, given my experience and professionalism, I could have given indications and ease the creation of something innovative, even documenting myself on what has been achieved in the world. As for Knaster, I got the right information, also through two friends who know international finance well. It turned out to be a truly positive person. This information convinced me to sell the Pisa share in good hands ”.
