Gratifications obtained both with that forge of talent that is Volley Meta, and with the various national blues. Central, born in 2005, credited with 205 cm in height, the talent from Campania will play away from home for the first time and will be divided between the first team of A2 Credem Banca, the second team of Serie B, and the related Under 19 youth team.
Russo, in 2021, played the European Championship reserved for the Under 17s; in 2022 the same competition but reserved for the Under 18s, with coach Zanin and the new “Lupo” Pardo Mati.

“As for next year, I hope to settle in well, since it will be the first season away from home. I will do my best to continue my growth path, to give my contribution to the team, for myself, and to repay the trust of the management of S. Croce sull’Arno, who strongly wanted me in the team”.
“In the meantime, I can tell the fans that I really want to fight to bring the Wolves name to the top and that I will always give my best”.
