Province: “Como, meeting at the stadium. Wise da Rapinese”

“Meeting at the stadium. Wise da Rapinese”, headlines Provinces.

Meeting “We met, liked each other and agree that a new stadium is a necessity. A new chapter is opening.”

At 10:55, with punctuality paraded as the flagship of a professional attitude, Como CEO Dennis Wise and CEO Charlie Ludi slipped into the Palazzo Cernezzi. There, Mayor Alessandro Rapinese was waiting for them for the first official meeting on the future of the Sinigaglia stadium. All three were locked in City Hall for about an hour. When they reappeared, they stopped in favor of cameras for a joint statement. Rapinese and Wise, shoulder to shoulder, to officially open a new era at Sinigaglia Stadium: “We met, liked each other and agree that a new stadium is a must. A new chapter is opening”, more or less the tone of the statements.

Then separately went more specifically. Rapinese said: “There is an old stadium that lives 19 days a year. Does this seem normal to you? Now it needs to be made alive and modern, accessible to the whole city and for several days a year. I’ve already met Wise and Ludy and they confirmed my impression that I’m speaking to serious people who want to do something. We speak the same language. Who would think this is a bad idea? Destroy darkness, dirt and drug dealing in a corner of the city that comes alive again. Details? I am not an architect. The first step will be to establish a contact person for each of the parties who will technically take care of the projects and their feasibility. Already today I will entrust our office to Heritage with the task. Concession? There are no problems with its manufacture, even a long one. The main thing is to do, do, do.

Wise said: “We have a team concept in mind and we intend to work with the city as if we were one team. The start was very positive.” […].
