The league is suspended for a whole month due to the World Cup and the clubs have to deal with this as well as they can. But it’s not easy. Four players are away with the Italian national team in Japan:Boninfante, Maruotti, Sabbi and Zaytsev.
“There was no need for Giani to tell me how he expected to see the boys when he will return – explained Budani – We are both worried about the game against Verona, because we’d really like to get some points from there in order not to compromise our qualification for the Italian Cup. In a normal situation that would be a game we could win, but the departure of the internationals in Japan, the difference of work between the ones away and the ones in Italy, means we don’t know how the group will be when we get back together”.
