Verona, presented by Imbrò: “Happy with this choice”
Within the usual media day since the retreat of Madonna di Campiglio, at the Alpen Suite Hotel, the presentation of Matteo Imbrò, the new Tezenis Verona player, took place today.
“It is a joy for me – presents the vice president Giorgio Pedrollo – thanks to Matteo Imbrò: a golden boy, young (class 94), but already in the national tour and captain of an important team like Treviso, in which he played for the last 4 years acquiring a lot of experience and recording important minutes and scores. The market for high-level Italians is very complex: there are difficulties in reaching quality players like Matteo. For this reason, as soon as the possibility arose, we threw ourselves headlong into this negotiation. Right from the start there was a particular feeling on both sides and we were quick to intervene, because a player like this, also given his versatility in the role of playmaker and guard, is difficult to find. We immediately noticed the energy with which Matteo arrived in Verona and the desire with which he has this challenge, giving importance to the whole Verona square. It will be a difficult season because salvation is never a simple goal since the newly promoted, but I am sure that Matteo will be an important player who will be able to give us a great help in this championship ”.
Subsequently, the first words of Matteo Imbrò as a new player for Tezenis Verona: “First of all, I thank the vice president Pedrollo for the kind words he spent towards me. The choice of Verona was mainly based on the words that Giorgio and the coach have told me in recent months. They were strong words, words of trust, which made my choice easy. I arrived in a company that, despite being a newly promoted company, is very ambitious. I hope and believe I have to reciprocate this trust, not in words but as I like it with the facts on the pitch, with the aim of achieving that even a newly promoted player can make a great championship. “
The President of the APT Madonna di Campiglio Tullio Serafini: “We welcome the Scaligera Basket, the journalists and all the participants of this retreat. I take up the words of the vice president to underline how our bond is alive and continues in a very positive way, especially this year where there is great satisfaction following the promotion to Serie A. Il Palazzetto di Carisolo – to which we thank the administration municipal and the Pro Loco for the management of the facility – I think it was a national team much appreciated by sports clubs and not only, having also been here at the beginning of August to prepare for the Europeans. Finally, I would like to say a few words for the great work that Scaligera Basket is doing with the youth teams, who represent a target to which we are increasingly addressing with our entire district. In particular, the summer camps are a reason to introduce young people to our territory as well as allow them to train in a healthy and stimulating environment for the practice of sporting activity “.
