Together with Davide Morgese, there is another local boy who will keep playing for Reggio Emilia: Riccardo Scaltriti. Born in 1994, the libero arrived last season from Modena, where he had learnt the game as a youngster. “I am glad to stay here – said Scaltriti – and even happier to see the faith the club has in me. We’ve lost some strong players with character like Tondo and Benaglia but I think we’ll still manage to entertain the fans this year again”. Sport director Barbareschi said about Riccardo that “he has a lot of quality” and that he represents “an important resource for the club”.
