In the first championships of the current decade, Lucchese, despite the meagre financial means at their disposal, manages to reach the play-offs twice with first Pagliuca and then Maraia on the bench. These are tournaments without particular jolts, which nonetheless allowes the club to be kept in a calm situation, while the possibility of a complete reconstruction of the Porta Elisa by a consortium of companies appears, then vanished into thin air.

In 2023, the four partners decide to hand over: the financial situation does not allow, in the absence of aid from the city's rich industrial fabrics, to go any further. On the horizon looms the Trapani entrepreneur Andrea Bulgarella, who takes over the club in the spring of that year. Declarations of intent are wasted, plans for top championships followed one after the other. In concrete terms, apart from a disputed change of brand name with the old coat of arms ending up in the attic, there is very little. 

The team prepared for the 2023-24 championship has obvious limitations and coach Giorgio Gorgone still manages to take it to the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia and to a mid-table position in the championship. The current year, however, reserves the coup de théâtre: Bulgarella and his team left, after having denied for months the hypothesis of an abandonment and in the summer having relaunched their ambitions.

In January 2025, the first sale arrives, then a second in February and a third in March: all in the hands of individuals incapable of paying a single salary due and, more generally, of coping with company expenses. The club is penalised by six points, Gorgone and the players are alone, as Favarin and his team were in 2019. As alredy happened, the fans are mobilised, paying for transfers and the opening costs of the Porta Elisa with yet another act of love.
