Sorrentino Palermo retreat love: from the mistake against Bologna to the promotion to A, then Mirri's offer - Stefano Sorrentino said goodbye to football played: the former goalkeeper spent four years at Palermo and in the summer he was close to returning to the rosanero.

A red thread binds Palermo and Stefano Sorrentino, who said goodbye a few days ago to football.

Sorrentino Palermo retreat love

Today's edition of the newspaper 'La Repubblica' traces the history of the goalkeeper in rosanero. Four seasons, from 2013 to 2016, with 117 appearances collected and the joy of a promotion to Serie A conquered. In the summer, who remained free after the end of the adventure with Chievo Verona, the expert extreme defender had also considered a return to the island, despite the club had started again by amateurs: “For a moment this summer the streets of Palermo and Stefano Sorrentino were about to meet again. And who knows, maybe if the various pieces had found the right place today the former captain rosanero would not have said goodbye to football. To those who had contacted him to check the news circulating about him, he had said that the tiger's eyes would continue to extend their gaze on the football fields. (...) Palermo tempted him, but another move from north to south for a single season, without certainties for the future, risked being too stressful for his wife and daughters ".

Many, in the past few hours, the messages of affection sent by the fans to the now former goalkeeper. Palermo, in fact, has not forgotten its captain, who with determination and passion has defended the door of the rosanero for a long time and, even at a distance, has continued to follow the fate of the club: “A very close relationship between the rosanero environment and Sorrentino. And to think that the beginning of his experience in Palermo had not been the best: he arrived to save the team from relegation in January 2013, the only blow between a series of meteors hired by Pietro Lo Monaco, he could not avoid it also because of his sensational error at the "Barbera" against Bologna that still takes his sleep away when he thinks about it and that defines the worst of his career. (...) In B, and as captain, he led the rosanero of Beppe Iachini's records to the championship victory and the B cup "Wings of victory" is the only trophy raised in a career that has seen him parry 25 penalties and that perhaps he would have deserved some more satisfaction apart from the seven appearances in the Champions League and the four in UEFA with Aek Athens. Whoever picked up the baton in rosanero speaks of it as a myth. "

Di Maio resigns, Grillo: «Why now?». The unknown elections in Emilia

Grillo had asked him to wait. Better: «Don't resign now», says who is close to Di Maio. Instead, the now former political leader decided to parade just four days before the regional ones in Emilia Romagna, despite the farewell speech he started writing a month ago. "Why right now? Couldn't he wait? ' In the last hours Grillo has asked and shared these questions with those who called him to find out what will happen to the Movement. «Beppe is very disheartened», confides, for example, Domenico De Masi, a sociologist of reference in the pentastellated world. Everyone notices a couple of things that don't come back at the end of the evening: Davide Casaleggio goes out publicly and thanks «Luigi», but Grillo is silent. As well as Di Battista who limits himself, from Iran, to "thanks"

Down below in these hours many people do not fully understand the timing of Di Maio's move. The most mischievous in the M5S say that "now Luigi is betting on Matteo Salvini's success in Emilia to show that he was right: the alliance with the Democratic Party can be a coincidence, not a structural fact". To shake off the usual suspicions, the Foreign Minister will close, contrary to what he had decided, the election campaigns of the pentastellate candidates in Calabria and Emilia Romagna. In yesterday's restricted meeting with ministers and undersecretaries, before Laura Castelli triggered the applause for the resigned chief, there were a couple of sentences that somehow threw several big names into disarray. "According to the newspapers, the government always risks, so it's not that if I leave I don't risk or risk more". What he has in mind "Luigi knows only him: at times it is incomprehensible to us", confides one of those present at the restricted summit in the Green Room of the government.

Di Maio could return after the general states. But first we need an overall clarification. On the other hand, he reiterated it yesterday: first we have to understand "what" and then "who".
Translation: first it is necessary to establish whether the M5S is a force ascribable to the center-left riverbed or if, as in fact Di Maio theorized yesterday, it is a needle scale force. Good for all seasons. Once to govern with Salvini (who in fact uses honey words for the former government partner: «It is not his fault»), another with Nicola Zingaretti, who however does not miss the Foreign Minister «an affectionate phone call ».

The moment of the decisions however is destined to approach. Why will it be necessary for the regional ones to make a choice of field: to continue running alone or to try "dialogue" with the Democratic Party in Veneto, Campania, Puglia and Marche? Everything will depend on the outcome of Emilia on Sunday night.
Even more different speech for the future. Collegial management is now desired by all the big names: from Minister Stefano Patuanelli to President of the Chamber Roberto Fico, passing through Federico D'Incà and Paola Taverna. Roberta Lombardi, group leader in the Lazio region and member of the guarantee committee to which regent Vito Crimi is a member, speaks of "collective intelligence". Indeed, he reminds the former chief, while granting him the honor of arms, that "all are useful and none indispensable".
Di Maio has already said that he will not leave the scene. He hopes to return, perhaps to be called out to the first crisis. But MPs no longer want him on top of the pyramid. Indeed, many of the rebels who are counting on a document that will become a motion call the colonels to arms. Taverna, who has no government roles, remains the biggest suspect: loved by the base, one hundred percent grillina, very critical of Di Maio, but never in public. The new expanded management would start with you.
