Soccer - Time for farewells at Pro Patria: Piran, Mallamo, Bashi, and Pitou bid farewell to Busto Arsizio - Sport - Varese News

While awaiting the verdict that will officially establish Pro Patria 's prompt return to Serie C , the first few days of July brought the farewells of four young players who in recent years have represented the best of the youth team wearing the Tigrotti jersey.

As was to be expected, given the termination of their contracts following the relegation to the amateur league and how much good they seemed to have done in a very difficult season, Piran, Mallamo, Bashi and Pitou said goodbye to the Busto Arsizio team, thanked the white and blue fans on social media and packed their bags for other playing fields.

While Piran (Pro Vercelli) and Mallamo (Lecco) will move relatively few kilometers from Via Cà Bianca, likely becoming former players to keep an eye on in next season's derbies and classics (in case of a repechage), Bashi will instead fly high, in Serie B, with the Catanzaro eagles, he who last season, as a rookie in the professional game, also had the satisfaction of wearing the shirt of the under-21 national team, that of the Black Eagles of Albania.

The latest to announce his departure from Busto Arsizio, for now, was Pitou , the little devil: the player who, more than anyone else, has captivated fans over the past three years with his class and superior technique. The French attacking midfielder's next destination is not yet official, although it seems he too will be moving not far from Busto Arsizio. Initial rumors point to a two-year contract with Alcione, Milan's third team.
