Biography
His career in sports began in 2009, when the court declared Pescara Calcio bankrupt. The insurance agent and the head of the leasing company Interservices Srl Sebastiani, with the participation of other Pescara entrepreneurs (including Deborah Caldor, daughter of the former club president and industrialist Peppe De Cecco), organizes a consortium that inherits by creating a new association called “Pelfara 1936 Delfino” name and history of the liquidated sports society. A year after the rescue and rebranding, the team confidently won the Leg Pro. The very next year, the Biankazurri returned to Series B.
November 28, 2011, Sebastiani was appointed president of the Pescara club. In 2012, the team entered Serie A after an almost twenty-year absence. In subsequent years, the team repeatedly flew from the elite Italian division and returned. Sebastiani entrusted the role of sports director Giorgio Repetto (former Pescara footballer) and Peppino Pavone and sharply rejuvenates the club’s leadership, including the coaching post held by Massimo Oddo , who leads the team to Serie A [1] .
In February 2017, after a hooligan attack angered by the negative results of Pescara fans on his cars (the damage amounted to several tens of thousands of euros), which resulted in the voluntary resignation of Oddo, Sebastiani announced his resignation from the presidency at the end of the 2016/17 season [2] .
