Altamura appoints Giuseppe Raffaele as new head coach

Altamura has appointed Giuseppe Raffaele as its new head coach to replace Ledian Memushaj and Mattia Evangelisti. The decision follows a difficult start to the Serie C season, where the team has earned only eight points from nine matches and struggles with the league's weakest attack, having scored only four goals.

Raffaele, who holds a contract until June 2028, aims to revitalize the squad by implementing a 3-5-2 system. His primary objectives are to secure the team's position in the league and improve offensive output, specifically looking to reintegrate the contributions of players like Michele Grande and Alessio Curcio.

In his introductory remarks, Raffaele emphasized his commitment to a long-term project and the importance of patience and mental growth. He intends to build upon the team's existing pressing and possession habits while introducing a more aggressive style of play to increase intensity and tactical awareness.
