Salernitana favorite for Serie B promotion, says former coach Raffaele

Former Salernitana coach Giuseppe Raffaele has identified the club as the clear favorite for direct promotion to Serie B. Speaking in an interview, Raffaele noted that the club possesses a strong working foundation, a wealthy presidency, and a dedicated fanbase, making this a potentially decisive year for the team.

Analyzing the competition, Raffaele expressed skepticism regarding other contenders. He described Bari as being in a state of delay due to physiological difficulties following their relegation. He also suggested that recent events surrounding Catania could compromise their standing before the season even begins.

Reflecting on his own tenure, Raffaele mentioned that the team held first place for 15 matchdays and maintained a position within the top three, suggesting that the club's potential was evident during his management.
