Treviglio, Blu basket fires the coach Michele Carrea- Corriere.it

The Blu basket of Treviglio exempts the coach Michele Carrea. The uncertain start of the season costs the place to the coach chosen to realize the dream of the A1 series. The news was released by the club in the late afternoon of Tuesday with a concise statement: The Mascio Blu Basket 1971 Group – we read there – announces that Michele Carrea has been relieved of the position of head coach. The company thanks the technician for his professionalism, recognizing his great availability during his period of technical guidance at the center of the corporate project and wishes him the best for the continuation of his career.

Carrea had arrived on the Treviglio bench last season, called upon to embody the new ambitious project president Stefano Mascio: bring the Quintet of the Bassa for the first time in the top flight. A dream to be realized in three years that already at the end of the first season has suffered more than a shake. The failing some key players over the course of the year, a game that has never conquered the fans and finally the poor physical and mental strength in the key moment of the playoffs with the race five with Chiusi lost without practically entering the game, they had questioned Carrea’s bench. It was for the president Mascio himself who confirmed his trust, at the same time revolutionizing the company both in the shareholder structure and in the technical figures.

At the end of May, first of all the historic sports director and partner paid the price Massimo Gritti who had been called to resign. He had been appointed in his place Euclid Insogna who had had to give up the role of general manager of the company. Office assumed pro tempore by President Mascio. Instead, Carrea had been confirmed and in the summer the club provided him with a widely renewed team by focusing on players of great value and experience. The aim was to attempt the assault on the A1 series at the second chance.

A project that has begun to falter due to a less than brilliant start to the season and the criticisms of the fans for the lack of continuity and play. The last episode on Sunday with the home defeat with Torino Mutua after a match in which the Treviso team suffered a black out in the second quarter. A defeat that made the club draw its own conclusions by taking the decision to draw a line by terminating the contract with the coach.

A few hours earlier, Blu basket had untied the knot of the general manager with the appointment of Aurelio Morelli. Molisano di Montaquila (Isernia), Morelli is 67 years old and a chartered accountant and statutory auditor with forty years of freelance experience. From November 2021 is part of the corporate structure of Blu Basket 1971 as a member of the Board of Directors. From the very beginning, he personally followed the planning and implementation of the Blu Basket Academy project dedicated to the biancobl youth sector.

During his sports and managerial career he has held various important roles: chairman of the board of auditors of Castel di Sangro football in Serie B and C (1990/1997), sole director of the Swim Academy, management company of sports facilities, legal representative of Swim Project Venafro, competitive swimming company, vice president of Atletic Montaquila (Serie B women’s football), manager of Roccaravindola football (Excellence and Serie D) and vice-president of Venafro football (Excellence).
