Lorenzo Gergati: “We are building a great group. The new building will be a jewel"
One of the players confirmed on the roster of Bertram Derthona è Lorenzo Gergati, who arrived last year at the start of the season and was the protagonist of the conquest of the Italian Cup. The point guard was among the first to make contact with the city on the occasion of the presentation of the Cittadella dello Sport which took place on 18 July. This is a project It is among the most beautiful and innovative in Italy – says Gergati – because a new building had not been built for many years. For us this will be a pride and an adventure, we can't wait for the work to begin so we can see the realization of this authentic jewel˝.
Since the first days of the new season, the player has acted as a point of reference for his teammates, having already had the opportunity to get to know the city last year. Among the most experienced on the roster available to Lorenzo Pansa, the playmaker described the work carried out in the training camp in Salice d'Ulzio, which was ˝very hard, because returning to competitive activity is always difficult: however, I believe that an excellent group of players is emerging and this is what will count most during the season˝. The fact that We had already known each other for some time because we found ourselves on the parquet several times as opponents. With some, including Ndoja, we are very good friends and we spoke at length over the summer, but all the players then asked me for information on the city, on how to get around because they see me as a point of reference˝.
Creating a united group right from the start will be one of the objectives of Gergati and the team, in view of an A2 championship which promises to be very competitive because ˝with direct promotion all teams will want to aim for first place in the Western Group. At the same time – continues the point guard – the increased number of relegations, and direct relegation, will prevent the various teams from leaving anything to chance. Ours is a team built to win and has great technical qualities: I believe that the group will make the difference, because if we are united off the pitch we will also be united on the pitch˝.
