Anybody still want to sign a calciatore?
65 soccer players. 10 days. 1 goal- to get signed by a professional soccer team. Is this the newest Italian reality show? No, it is not. This scenario is actually real, and it's going on at the famed Coverciano training complex in Florence right now. Every summer players without a club go to Coverciano for a training camp where they hope to impress various scouts of Serie A, B, and Lega Pro (C1 and C2) teams so that they have a job for the coming season.
