A few days ago, Luca Scinto announced his decision to take a break from his role as first sports director at Neri Sottoli. Manager Angelo Citracca explains that the job will now be taken by Serge Parsani.

Two days Luca Scinto announced his decision to leave Neri Sottoli, at least on a provisional basis. In addition to the former Tuscan rider, Serge Parsani was absent from the list of sports directors that was published on the UCI website.

However, manager Angelo Citracca explains that Parsani will remain an important part of the management team.

"We sent Parsani's contract to the UCI yesterday," he told La Gazzetta dello Sport. "Serge will become our first director. Scinto's decision is a personal choice that I support. Luca has decided to take a step back and take a moment to reflect. We don't know how long it will take. But we will stay in contact with him and he will handle the junior team that will be have Ballerini's name."
