My Take
Ciro Polito's career arc is the kind I find genuinely satisfying. A former goalkeeper from Naples, the man who once stood furthest back and read the whole pitch now shapes a club's future as sporting director at Bari. That progression feels almost inevitable: keepers are paid to see everything, and that panoramic instinct translates beautifully to recruitment and squad-building. There is something fitting about a southern Italian footballer staying in the demanding cauldron of the Italian game on the executive side. I like understated professionals who reinvent themselves without fuss, and Polito strikes me as exactly that.
