Blucerchiati: retreat and hard work leading up to Juventus

Christmas holidays are not over, but it seems like Sampdoria has no time
to waste. On December 30th the blucerchiati of mister Delio Rossi were
back at Bogliasco and they are now intensifying the training sessions to
be ready for the first match of the new year.

Challenge. On Sunday 6th of January at the "Juventus Stadium" there will be a very big challenge, difficult but also fascinating for Gastaldello & co. The injured Maxi López (he restarted working at the "Mugnaini" so he is close to be back) and Enzo Maresca (he will be out for a month because of a calf muscle problem) will not be of the match, as well as the disqualified Roberto Soriano.

Retreat. The mister, together with the club and waiting for developments from the just opened football market, decided to be in retreat with the players at the Astor Hotel in Nervi from Wednesday 2nd to Saturday, when the team will leave for Turin.
