SSC Bari is in a critical phase following relegation to Serie C, and Mayor Vito Leccese has spoken out to demand guarantees on the sale of the club. During a public address, Leccese acknowledged the discontent among fans and the need for a change in club management. The central issue revolves around the San Nicola stadium, owned by the municipality, which becomes a pressure point to obtain clear commitments from the De Laurentiis family. Leccese emphasized that he cannot force the De Laurentiis family to leave, as SSC Bari is a private company. However, he clarified that before any actions related to the stadium, formal guarantees on the sale of the club are necessary. The requests include the indication of new management and an advisory process to facilitate the transition to new ownership. The mayor also proposed the creation of a guarantee committee to maintain constant dialogue between the club and institutions, aiming to reassure fans and the Bari community about the future of SSC Bari.
