French media: Verati will acquire 50% of the shares of the old owner for 1.7 million euros, witnessing Pescara upgrade

According to French media footmercato, Verati is about to acquire 50% of the shares of the former owner Pescara Club, priced at about 1.7 million euros.

Italian midfielder Veratti came from Pescara youth training. He joined the first team in 2008 and transferred to Paris Saint-Germain in 2012. He currently plays for Qatar team Arabi SC. Now Verati is preparing to return to the old owner Pescara and is the owner of the club. Footmercato revealed that Verati will buy 50% of the shares of Pescara Club for 1.7 million euros, and the two parties will soon finalize the agreement.

Pescara was reduced to the Serie C League in 2021, and the club's finances were in trouble, and they kept changing management and coaches. The relationship with the fans also became tense, and they were once in a trough, and even faced a bankruptcy crisis. But this season Pescara draws Turnera 1-1 in two leges in the final of the Serie C upgrade play-off, and won 3-1 in the penalty shootout and successfully upgraded. She can participate in the Serie B next season. Verati's return and investment will also help Pescara regain its strength and prepare to rebuild a new training center for the club.

Verati and his family watched Pescara's upgraded play-offs live and walked into the court after the game to celebrate with the team. Verati said: "I was worried at one time, but winning is always the best. After entering the penalty shootout, I was sure we would advance to Serie B. The Serie C was difficult, but now our attention will turn to Serie B, which is similar to Serie A. Will I come to Pescara as a player, coach, or other? Let's see what happens, haha."

And Pescara's current chairman Sebastiani said: "This is a victory for the whole team, a victory for the head coach, and a team like us should not play Serie C. Verati returns to the club? This means that there is someone who loves this club deeply and will be with us. He has learned a lot from Pescara, and we hope he can help the club now, he is already working with us. Now we are enjoying the holidays and looking forward to next season."
