The Real Zaragoza has suffered great evils in recent years, more than one and more than two, but it seems on track to lay the foundations to solve some. For now, it already has a general director. This is Guido Baroli, who was manager of Defensa y Justicia, in Argentina, where he led the process of professionalization and institutional growth of the club. In addition, the team is looking for an Aragonese president.
It has been the CEO of A.Gain, Bobby Aitkenhead who has revealed this matter. «There is going to be a change in the presidency of Real Zaragoza so that it is Aragonese and we are working on it,» acknowledged the executive head of the investment group.
On the other hand, they have been questioned about the formula and the resources, also human, with which they land at the Real Zaragoza. «We have made a quick but exhaustive tour. The capacity of the professionals is very good. In this landing some things will have our mark but, in general, we are happy with what we have found,» said Guido Baroli this time.
Real Zaragoza’s new general manager is committed to proximity, something that the club has lacked in the last four years. «We are going to be there every day. In the sports area, we continue with the plan. There will be things that have our imprint, but not necessarily people,» he added.
VISION AND PROMISES
Guido Baroli lands in a Real Zaragoza that he has been wanting to reach for years. And he promises, both he and the group he represents, «responsibility, commitment, conscience and respect». He is very excited to promote a management model with foundations that will bear fruit in growth and performance.
«The idea is to return to the roots. There have to be Aragonese roots in the institution,» Baroli acknowledged. What he has not tired of guaranteeing has been commitment, presence, work and leadership. Also the idea that they are not just passing through Real Zaragoza, but are here to stay. That they want to see the team regain its prestige (lost with the previous ownership).
«It will be seen in many actions. We will do different things and bring the institution closer together,» said Guido. They are aware of the club’s situation, the lack of credibility and the problems that have been experienced in the Real Zaragoza, but they assure «rational decisions». They request, in turn, a little patience or, rather, the benefit of the doubt.
