The farewell of the American who will go to Verona. Rbr: "Thank you Justin, you will always be one of us". Johnson: "I will always love these colors"

From crowd idol to departing player, all in the space of a few days. Justin Johnson says goodbye to Rbr and the city with a post in English on Instagram. No hard feelings, just caresses and hugs. "Forever grateful - Johnson writes -. What started as a stop on a journey quickly became a second home. When I arrived at Basket Rimini my goal was simple: to one day leave the club, the team and the community better than I had found them. I hope I have done it and left a mark, even if small, along the way. This city has given me more than I ever expected. Friends for life, unforgettable memories and, most importantly, it has helped me rediscover my love for the game. Until next time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Alè burdel. Seventh year in the archives. We have just begun".

Yesterday evening the company's response on social media. "Thank you Giustino - writes Rbr -. We immediately christened you like this to make sure you felt like one of us from Rimini. You made us grow in these wonderful years and we grew up together until we got to play something really important and unexpected. And so this greeting and this thank you is from an entire city that welcomed you, loves you and appreciates you. Thank you JJ and may it be a journey full of beautiful things for you and your family. Alé Burdel". So only affection from everyone, Johnson and the company. So why the farewell?
