The mayor of Salò, Francesco Cagnini, has expressed strong concern regarding recent media speculation suggesting a possible “disappearance from the name” of Feralpisalò to facilitate the rescue of Brescia Calcio. In an official statement, Cagnini emphasized that such claims are not only disrespectful but deeply hurt the local community and its football history, which dates back to the early 20th century. He cited historical figures associated with Salò football, such as Lino Turina and Aldo Caffi, highlighting the importance of preserving this heritage.
The mayor confirmed that the Administration is in constant dialogue with FeralpiSalò and has recently held meetings to plan for the new season. The possibility of “transforming” Feralpisalò into a new Brescia is provoking strong reactions among fans, who are expressing a clear “No to the merger” on social media, questioning the future of their team and their sporting identity if such a project were to materialize.
