Sampdoria, the great stalemate continues. And today it's the Ultras' party. In the coach's lineup, Velazquez is back in fashion, along with Possanzini. The only certainty seems to be the future DS Americo Branco, while the rest of the lineup is still to be defined. The traditional end-of-year gathering for fans at Marassi is a must-attend event. Over a week after the double dismissal of Andrea Mancini and Gianni Invernizzi, the technical staff of Sampdoria have not yet been officially confirmed. And yet, the only position that has been definitively filled is that of Americo Branco, who will arrive as the new sports director, although he will have to attend the Coverciano course to obtain the Italian license for the role (he will be accompanied by Lorenzo Ariaudo, promoted from team manager to technical director). Today, the question remains as to who will be the next coach of the blucerchiati. The club, led by the tandem Walker-Fredberg, seems to want to focus on an international profile (Julio Velazquez, the name in pole position, but there are also other candidates) even if in the last few hours the interest in Davide Possanzini, ex blucerchiato from 2000 to 2002 and from Mantova, has resurfaced. Possanzini is a coach of a 'playful' profile, school De Zerbi: a suggestive profile, even if he has been reduced - after two positive seasons - to a season of shadows and lights concluded prematurely with a dismissal. The Ultras' party at Marassi. The choice of the coach remains fundamental, just as it will be essential to know the market moves - with a team that is currently being rebuilt or almost rebuilt - to understand the real ambitions of Sampdoria in the season ahead. A phase of waiting also from the environment and the fans, who are following the evolution of the situation with attention. Today, at the Ferraris stadium, it's a special day for the Ultras Tito Cucchiaroni and the blucerchiati supporters, with the traditional end-of-year party. A long day of relaxation and entertainment, but one in which reflections on the complicated period that Sampdoria continues to live, at a sporting level, will not be lacking.
