The Zebrette patron states that the Little Zebras are no longer a stepping stone for players, but a point of arrival; insists that he has neither the desire nor the offers to sell good players.
President Giampaolo Pozzo has stated that Udinese will be looking to consolidate their squad for the UEFA Champions League, and insists that he will not sell the club’s crown jewels.
The Friulani have cultivated a reputation for finding young talent, and then selling them off to bigger clubs. True to the tradition, many outfits are looking towards Udine once again to procure some promising players for the next
season.
Giampaolo Pozzo maintained that he has not received any serious offers for his stars, and insisted that he has no desire to rid the club off its precious players.
The Bianconeri President insisted that selling their big guns at this moment will be like throwing away all the success that they have achieved over the past couple of years.
The Patron extolled the team for their exceptional performance, and stated that it is his duty to ensure that they are provided with the best talent and facilities that can be afforded.
While talking to the press, the Italian businessman said:
“First of all I’d like to point out no real concrete offers have arrived for our players, but above all Udinese have no intention of selling our crown jewels. We do not intend to throw away all the good work we’ve done with such
effort over the last two years. The team and staff have done exceptionally well and the club is working to ensure they have at their disposal the players, infrastructure and environment that is modern, efficient and state of the art.”
Udinese have qualified for the UEFA Champions League qualification spot for the second time in running, and the achievement remains unprecedented in the history of the club.
Pozzo stated that a new stadium and consistent participation in the European tournament will allow the Udine outfit to take the next step in quality and economic importance. The patron added that the Zebrette is no longer a stepping
stone for big players, but a point of arrival for the talent.
The President concluded that reaching their current status is like reaching paradise, and insisted that the next step for the club is to stabilize its position at the top of Serie A.
