Di Carlo: Pazzini & Palombo not for sale
Mimmo Di Carlo's first words as Sampdoria boss will have been reassuring to Blucerchiati fans.
When asked if Angelo Palombo or Giampaolo Pazzini would be following Gigi Del Neri and Beppe Marotta to Turin, he replied:
"The President has already declared that they are not for sale."
The tactician also spoke with excitement about his new adventure.
"It’s an honour to be here. I felt incredible joy last night when I was given the okay to complete the move. It’s an honour to be here and the Champions League will be a fantastic stage to play on. We’ll always give our best."
Finally, he commented on Antonio Cassano.
"He is an important player and I want our relationship to be clear from day one. Our bond will grow and I’m sure he’ll have a great season as he will want to break into the Italy side for the European Championship."

Cassano will be staying – Marotta
Sampdoria chief Beppe Marotta says "that there is at least a 98 per cent chance" that Antonio Cassano will be staying at Marassi.
"Nobody, including Inter, have enquired after him," claimed Marotta.
"Besides, the season is fast approaching and it would be too late to change all our plans so drastically.
"We are happy with our squad, although we have got plenty of time to complete it with some important additions."
Marotta has also confirmed that he came close to signing Flamengo striker Adriano.
"Our preferred policy, other than focusing on young talent, is to 'recover' great champions who have perhaps lost their way.
"We had given Adriano some thought. It’s a shame he is no longer available, seeing as he decided to remain in Brazil."
So far in this transfer window the Blucerchiati have signed Daniele Mannini, Fernando Tissone and Matteo Guardalben as well as loaning Lazio's Luciano Zauri and Parma's Marco Rossi.
Samp's league campagn gets underway on Sunday August 23 away to Catania.
