The main factor where this choice came from is the honor and, above all, the pride of wearing this shirt, therefore fighting for these colours. I certainly expect many ambitions from this season’s project, which certainly is not lacking both from the club and from us athletes, also considering the level roster that has been built. So – adds Amato – with cohesion and a lot of sweat in training I’m sure we will be able to achieve the objectives set”.
