Sampdoria, eyes of club officials Osti and Romei on training, coach Giampaolo

Sampdoria are preparing for this Sunday's home match against Palermo, one that will be critical for Massimo Ferrero's club. The president's right hand man, advisor Antonio Romei, and Sampdoria's sporting director, Carlo Osti, were present during the second session at the club's training ground, Bogliasco. The pair, pictured above, were their to take an overview of proceedings, with eyes examining all, including coach Marco Giampaolo. The coach's position would become more precarious if he fails to win on Sunday. With three days remaining until the Palermo match, Sampdoria are looking to point things firmly in a forward direction. @ZekeTell
