Venezia penalty taker

Giovanni Stroppa explicitly named captain Gianluca Busio as Venezia's penalty taker in the pre-match press conference before Venezia-Lecce on 22 August. The coach added that Busio will decide what to do, so Busio owns the decision but may delegate a particular kick. Akor Adams and Albion Rrahmani remain conditional alternatives rather than co-primary takers; the press conference supersedes the speculative preseason rankings that had placed the forwards first. No fixed order behind Busio has been confirmed, so the backup positions remain low confidence.
