We’re less than two weeks away from the league debut against Verona on October 25 and the group in back in the gym for week 8 to get ready. And to be at their best, the Verona stars will play no less than three friendly games at home this week: on Thursday against Tuscania (A2), and against Molfetta both on Friday and Saturday.

“We will really start to think about the Verona game now – said libero Andrea Giovi – We’ll have to make the most of all the work done so far. And with the arrival of Luciano (De Cecco) and Russell, we’ll be able to work better on our schemes. I think Saturday’s game against Molfetta will be like a rehearsal for the opening league encounter against Verona”.
