Padova promoted young Tomislav Maniero to the first team. The spiker played in B2 last season with Valsugana after three years in Club italia (B2).
“I am extremely happy to be able to play in the A2 with Padova – said Maniero – Hopefully, this will be the start of something good. I have so much to learn, it will be great to work with coach Schiavon. Padova has always shown faith in me, I want to do well for the club. I will play alongside talented teammates, from whom I can only learn new things”.
