Corvino’s Controversial Analogy: Football Decisions and Dating

During the end-of-transfer-window press conference, Lecce’s technical director Pantaleo Corvino addressed various topics, including the sale of Dorgu to Manchester United and rejected offers for Krstovic and Tete Morente, as well as new signings.

One particular statement by Corvino generated significant social media reactions due to his choice of analogy regarding his transfer market decisions: “If you date a hundred women and 99 say you’re good, you might be a bit tired by the hundredth one who says you’re not good. That’s how it goes in football.”

This colorful expression certainly gets the point across, but it’s unlikely to be well-received by everyone. The comparison between dating experiences and football decisions has raised eyebrows and sparked discussions online.
