This morning, Piacenza’s two young prospects, spikers Marko Sedlacek and Francesco Cottarelli, have been unveiled.

“I’m enjoying my time with my teammates – said Cottarelli – I spent two years in the B2 division with Isola della Sala and now I am here to prove I am worth it. I am extremely excited to play with Coscione, we’ll do our best to reach the playoffs but we’ll just wait and see what happens”.

As for Sedlacek, he arrives in Piacenza after a year on loan at Rennes in France: I am very happy to be here, this is a great opportunity for me – he said – Playing alongside athletes like Zlatanov and Papi, real volleyball legends, is a privilege. I can only learn so much for them”.
