The 2022/2023 season has passed into the archives and the time has come for Verona to take stock. The offensive department has been able to offer a constant performance also thanks to the performances of Noumory Keita, who has not felt the impact with the Italian championship, carving out a leading role for himself, so much so that he has been deployed as a starter in every game of the year that has just ended. The Malian spiker stood out for the versatility he demonstrated on the pitch, also playing opposite in some matches.
Looking at the numbers collected, throughout the entire season Keita did not miss a single appointment, taking the field in all 32 matches for a total of 122 sets between Regular Season, Quarter Play Offs, Play Offs 5th Place and Coppa Italia . The Mali Aquila scored 507 points in all competitions, finishing in sixth place in the special ranking dedicated to SuperLega strikers. The number 9 from Verona collected the most points (29) on the sixth return day of the Regular Season, when WithU Verona beat Cucine Lube Civitanova. Keita’s winning attacks were 417 with a positivity percentage of 53.3%, while he found 27 winning blocks, 6 of which in the matches against Piacenza and Perugia. The 2001 class also scored from nine meters, with 63 aces, just one less than Kaziyski, leader of the aceman standings with the highest number of matches played.
