HERE I FOUND GREAT SERIOUSNESS AND A LOT OF ENTHUSIASM

Defender Massimiliano Mangraviti was the first player to introduce himself to reporters present at the press room of Orogel Stadium Dino Manuzzi. In front of the reporters' questions, the Bianconero central defender said:

"From the first contact with Sporting Director Artico, I perceived so much desire to do well, so much seriousness, so much enthusiasm, and the presence of an important club behind me. Everyone spoke highly of Cesena to me, including the high quality of daily life, so I did not think twice about accepting this opportunity."

"Today, I am 26 years old, and I still have a lot of desire to do. I see my arrival in Bianconero as a step forward in my career. In Brescia, I played in all positions in the defense, being a center back in both a three and a two system and a fullback. The role in which I fit best and play most naturally, however, is a central defender."

"I already knew your stadium because I had the pleasure of playing here last season when I faced Spezia. I liked it a lot, and it impressed me when it was half-empty, so I look forward to experiencing it when it is full."

"The Serie A championship with Brescia left me so much because I came from Serie C and made the double jump. When you enter Serie A, you can meet many champions up close and understand why they are such champions. It was an experience that allowed me to grow a lot, and I also used that in the subsequent Serie B championships."

"In Serie B, you need a lot of balance; you should not get excited after two wins, and you should not get down after two defeats. I do not doubt that the fans will give us great support because everyone has spoken well of them to me, which is another key element for us. During the season, it can take very little to hook the playoffs or to find ourselves close to the playout, and, therefore, we have to work and think game by game: it's not a simple catchphrase, but that's how Serie B works."
