Sorrentino is already thinking in red and white

Valencian full-back Alfredo Sorrentino has been presented by Alser BM Puerto Sagunto to the media and supporters

Alfredo Sorrentino experienced his first day as a red-and-white player today and felt the warmth of the supporters, who filled the room.

Sorrentino, accompanied by the acting councillor for sport, José Luis Martí, the club president, Juanjo Bataller, and his new coach, Goran Dozkic, highlighted how delighted he was to be able to enjoy Asobal again with a team from his home region. He said he was feeling something he had never felt before: "I am really eager to start pre-season, something I had never felt just two weeks after finishing a campaign."

For his part, the manager was delighted with Sorrentino’s signing and admitted that he had been trying to sign him for several seasons because “He will be one of the foundations of our future, because he has experience, maturity and quality, both on the court and within the group, where he knows what to do when required: encourage, drive us on or give us a small telling-off.”

 

Before them, president Juanjo Bataller reaffirmed that “Alser’s budget has been reduced by 100,000 euros, which has meant that, in order not to reduce the quality of the squad, we have had to build it with 13 players instead of 16, as last year.”, and reiterated the financial prudence guiding his decisions, saying that “if no more money comes in, these are the players we can afford and commit to, although if revenues increase in future and there are players on the market, we will try to sign them.”

 

José Luis Martí, for his part, said he was convinced that Alser would remain in Asobal and that Europe would soon come to the city through Alser BM Puerto Sagunto.

 

This Friday it will be the turn of Serbian player Bojan Stefanovic, who will be presented at 18:00, also in the multipurpose room at the Internucleos Municipal Swimming Pool.
