Latina strengthened its squad with the addition of 34-year-old Jose Rivera. The US spiker played last season at Vibo Valentia and is currently involved in the World League with Puerto Rico. In Vibo, he scored 260 points in 25 games with a 50,2% in attack.

“I am extremely happy with the signing of Rivera, who had an excellent season in Vibo – said coach Prandi – He is al all-around spiker, very good in reception and dig, which is necessary to give balance to the group”.
