President of Triestina Ben Rosenzweig spoke about the situation at the Nereo Rocco stadium in a press release published on the official communication channels of the Red Halberd club.
“I would like to thank the region of Friuli Venezia Giulia for its support and contribution to the restoration project of the Nereo Rocco pitch, as well as for the adaptation work necessary to host the International Youth Tournament in Trieste. We must also thank the FIFA Regional Committee for its willingness to work with us in our ambitions to develop youth football in Trieste.
Since all the necessary funding has been allocated and Triestina has already received many proposals from the best agronomic companies in Italy, all parties involved need to work together to quickly achieve our common goal: the immediate return of the Nereo Rocco field. to a standard worthy of an international stadium and the city to which it belongs.
Our players deserve better than to play on a pitch like the current one, which puts them at greater risk of injury and which could ultimately prove to be a major factor hindering the club’s promotion ambitions. During my conversations with them, President Fedriga and Mayor DiPiazza confirmed to me that they agreed with me that, in order to realize serious sporting ambitions, a city like Trieste deserves a stadium with a pitch that is significantly better than normal. “not the worst.”
There is no doubt that we want to play at Nereo Rocco. But I have always said that we have embarked on a multi-year project that must rest on a solid foundation. I am convinced that rebuilding the pitch now, even mid-season, will end the uncertainty surrounding the stadium and will be the best long-term solution for the club. Once funding is secured, proposals are finalized and the youth tournament is approved, Triestina and its fans are expected to commit to immediate approval of the project.”
