Andres Rueda’s electoral promise, the new Training Center for the Santos youth categories has started to take shape. The president presented a project to councilors last Tuesday. The idea is to build a space in Praia Grande.
The top Juventus management understands that the base is currently very large, has less than ideal conditions and infrastructure and must evolve to keep up with other more important clubs. The current CT has only two fields available and lacks infrastructure to host and develop multi-professional areas.
“With a mini-stadium and a field we would already be superior to what we have today. We have two terrible fields and changing rooms. Only with this here would we have better conditions and structures to be able to finish the CT with our own resources, law on sponsors or incentives. The CT in Cotia almost everything was done with tax incentives,” Rueda said.
But why leave Santos? Rueda claimed to have searched extensively for land in the city, but he couldn’t find any he liked, both due to lack of money and structure.
“We did research for two years, we were almost about to give up, we had to buy everything and we had no money. Then the Praia Grande area was put up for exchange. The difference between the land is around R$ 17 million. This figure It would be necessary to invest in the new TC to equalize the values”, declared the deputy.
Furthermore, the president expressed concern about the lack of security. In his opinion, CT Meninos da Vila is located in a dangerous area, with an increase in violence, with shootings and frequent police operations, which affect the physical and emotional safety of employees.
“What’s scary is the security. That’s not an exaggeration. There were shootings every 15 days, kids would come down and be taken away,” Andres Rueda said.
In this way, a disciplinary committee visited the cities of the Baixada Santista to find an ideal space. According to Santos fans, what they liked the most was Praia Grande. See project details HERE!
