Simone Biagi is the newest lion in the Giallorossi squad
Officially signed: The Aretino midfielder joins Ravenna FC
Ravenna FC is pleased to announce the signing of midfielder Simone Biagi. Born in 1997, Simone arrives from his Serie C experience with Latina.
Having started his career in the lower leagues, he made his Serie D debut at Benelli with Rignanese, facing Ravenna, then coached by Mauro Antonioli, with Davide Mandorlini and Andrea Venturini—who will now be his teammates in this Giallorossi adventure—playing in the starting lineup.
After Rignanese, Simone became a key figure at Montevarchi, leading them to promotion to Serie C. A midfielder with a solid physical presence, he balances both defensive and offensive duties, adding stability to the midfield while also not shying away from scoring with shots from distance. He is certainly a valuable addition to the Giallorossi midfield.

Defined several incoming moves for the under-21 slots
Five new arrivals and one confirmation at Ravenna FC
Just a few days before the start of training, Ravenna FC 1913 is pleased to announce several agreements regarding the under-age players, as required by the 2024/25 Serie D regulations, which stipulate that teams must always have at least three players born in 2004, 2005, and 2006 on the field. To complete the goalkeeping department, Matteo Galassi, born in 2005 and raised in Cesena’s youth system, joins the team. Last season, he was the starting goalkeeper for Adriese, making 33 appearances and keeping 11 clean sheets in his first season in the senior league.
Young right-winger Nicolò Sancinito, born in 2006, joins on loan from Genoa. After progressing through the youth ranks of the Grifone, Sancinito is now set to face his first season “in the senior league”. In the previous season, with Genoa’s Primavera 1, he made 25 appearances, scoring 1 goal and providing 1 assist. On the right side of defense, Gabriele Ciuffo, born in 2005 and trained in Inter’s youth system, joins after a solid season as a starter with Varesina in Serie D, Group B. Ciuffo made 30 appearances, scoring 1 goal and providing 1 assist, and helped his team reach the playoffs.
On the left side, Leo Di Martino, born in 2005 and loaned from Avellino, joins the team. Di Martino, who was trained in Avellino’s youth system, gained valuable experience last season, winning Serie D, Group E, with Pianese. He made 13 appearances after joining the club during the winter transfer window. Also joining the left wing is Alessandro Calvosa, born in 2006, who arrives from Potenza. Last season, he gained experience in Serie D with Forsempronese, making 22 appearances. His excellent performances earned him a call-up to the Serie D representative team for the Viareggio Tournament, where he met another new Ravenna player, Bernardo Bucci.
In addition to these new arrivals, who will be immediately available to coach Antonioli, the club also confirms Giacomo Calandrini. A product of Ravenna FC's youth system, Calandrini, after progressing through the youth ranks, made a strong impression last season in the first team. A versatile midfielder, he also performed well on the wings, collecting 15 appearances and establishing himself as a reliable option for the team in the upcoming season. The club wishes these young talents the best of luck for a season of personal growth that can accompany a team journey filled with achievements.

He is poised to become a key figure in Ravenna's midfield. After wearing the jerseys of prestigious clubs such as Padova, Brescia, and Spezia, to name a few, Matteo will once again contribute his leadership and charisma to achieving Ravenna’s ambitious goals in the upcoming season, playing for the team of his hometown.

The New Staff of the Giallorossi Youth Sector
The process of revitalizing the giallorossi club is significantly shaping the summer of 2024, with all club sectors involved in laying the groundwork for the ambitious project envisioned by the new ownership. A crucial aspect of this revitalization concerns the youth sector, whose structure has been completely overhauled to meet new challenges and ambitions. At the helm of this new direction are two methodology coordinators chosen by Davide Mandorlini: Federico Turchetta and Giulio Pastecchia, who will oversee the project. Their focus will be on creating an identifiable and vertical pathway within the youth sector.
The principles and guidelines for the youth sector and the entire giallorossi staff are clear and deep. As outlined by Mandorlini at the press conference, these principles aim to make Ravenna the top choice for all local young players. The foundational philosophy centers on the development and growth of the player not only from a technical or physical perspective but also in terms of personality, how they handle situations on and off the field. Values, identity, and a vision that extend beyond on-field results will help form players who can progress to the first team.
To achieve these goals, the methodology will embrace multidisciplinary aspects related to psychology, communication, pedagogy, and neuroscience. It will be supported by a team where coaches are in constant evolution to foster learning and provide the best educational path for the players. Open-mindedness, a continuous desire for growth, and curiosity are the key traits sought in the coaches, who will be introduced to the players' families in the coming days.
The vision for football training is global, aiming to educate players within the complexity and depth of the sport while recognizing a clear identity. Joining Turchetta and Pastecchia in this journey is Lorenzo Dadina, confirmed as the performance area manager, who has been coordinating the physical preparation of the young lions for years.
Regarding the youth sector composition, this will be a new path, starting from the previous season's squad and allowing players to test themselves with this new methodology. For future integrations, the new scouting area manager, Massimo Paciotti, is already active. He and his team will be responsible for identifying promising talents to be included in the giallorossi youth system, working ethically and in collaboration with local clubs—a synergy that is essential.
Completing the managerial framework of the structure are two organizational managers: Federico Masotti for competitive activities and Sandro Bonfiglioli for grassroots activities. The sports secretariat will include Sara Gobbi, Clara Geminiani, and Mariateresa Santaguida.
