Agrigento, football restarts: between reality and hopes, there will be both Atletico and a new Akragas
AGRIGENTO – Agrigento football is getting back on track. After weeks of waiting and silence, something is finally moving. And if on the one hand, Atletico Agrigento remains, to date, the only officially announced and already operational project , on the other, the hypothesis of a rebirth of Akragas is becoming concrete again, with a new company , a renewed business structure and the goal of starting again – in all likelihood – from the Promotion championship .
Atletico Agrigento, founded by Lillo and Alessio Capraro , looks to the future with pragmatism: a long-term project that aims to enhance the youth of the province and restore dignity to local football starting from the grassroots. Leading it will be Michele Fodale , Italian agent of a foreign multinational, now determined to invest time and resources in his city: " We will start from the category that the League will assign to us - he says - but it is not just about football. It is a question of respect for the people, the fans, the city. We want to restore pride to Agrigento ".
But the most anticipated news by the fans concerns the return of Akragas , which will not remain just a memory . Among the protagonists of the new project there will be the lawyer Giancarlo Rosato , who has left Nissa to return to take care of the team of his city. The new white and blue course could also count on a technical guide already identified: according to sources close to the consortium, the chosen coach would be Giovanni Campanella , a well-known and esteemed name in the amateur field.
While waiting for the official announcements, Agrigento is dreaming again . Two distinct projects – one already operational, the other in an advanced stage of definition – could give voice and pride back to local football , breaking a silence that has lasted too long. Atletico to build, Akragas to be reborn. Now all that is needed is the pitch.
