by Michele Bufalino

Until there are signatures on the contracts, sometimes negotiations that are considered done can fall through at the last minute. It happened this summer with Timi Max Elsnik, the midfielder who decided to go and play for Red Star, it happened already during this transfer market session with Antonio Candela of Venezia, who was called back while he was traveling to Pisa, it also happened yesterday evening with the last big purchase of the January transfer market. In fact, the big deal to bring the captain of the Danish under-21 national team fell through at the last minute Oliver Proustgaard Nielsen in black and blue. Also announced by coach Filippo Inzaghi after Palermo-Pisa, declaring "we are waiting for him in Pisa", as well as his compatriot Oliver Abildgaard, always at the end of the Sicilian trip, at the last minute, in fact, while the club was waiting for him for the medical visits and the signing of the contract, the cold shower. Lazio in fact, with a maxi offer of more than double that of the Nerazzurri, he outwitted the club by over 4 million euros and the footballer, instead of coming to the city, took a plane from Copenhagen to Rome Fiumicino, where he landed late last night. Pisa had closed for 2 million plus bonuses offering the player a four-year contract until 2029.

The club, according to what we learn, informed of the news, thundered angrily with the player's agents, considered "not very serious in the management of the deal" and also with Vejle, during a change of ownership. However, Pisa, it must be remembered, is a club of Serie B, and it is incredible that he fought, almost on equal terms, against clubs that play in Serie A and, as in the case of Lazio for Provstgaard and Red Star for Elsnik, against clubs that play in European cups. This should give an idea of ​​the importance of what the management is doing. Yesterday evening, the Nerazzurri club had to deal with a change of strategy, evaluating the possibility of going back to negotiate with another defender.

As already emerged, Pisa also had a plan B, always from abroad. This is why today, during the last day of the transfer market, which will end at midnight, there could be news until the last minute. Finally, another couple of outgoing operations to decline.

Very close to an agreement to bring Christian Sussi to Pianese on loan, while Emanuel Vignato could remain in the Nerazzurri. For the moment the player has not reached an agreement with Carrarese for the loan, but up until yesterday evening Pisa has not yet received any further requests for the number 10, which is why either he will find another club today, or he could remain in the Nerazzurri under Inzaghi, but with the awareness of being the last choice in his role.
