Rana Verona’s middle blockers department continues to speak Italian: the arrival of Marco Vitelli is official. Twenty-eight years old and already a long militancy in the Italian top flight, he arrives on the banks of the Adige after years as a protagonist with the shirts of Padua and Milan, with which he also appeared on the international stages of the CEV Cup in the recently concluded season. Experience, charisma and strength are characteristics that belong to the position three from Abruzzo, who has already been part of the senior Italian national team for some time.
“Rana Verona represents an important stage in my career and I bring all my enthusiasm to face this new experience to the fullest” declared Marco Vitelli in his first words as a Scaligero player. “In recent years, the team has demonstrated all its value, always fighting for the top of the table and playing against them has always been very complicated. I arrive in an ambitious reality that wants to grow and improve from game to game and from day to day, objectives that I also have very clear. Plus the Verona arena is something special, I’ve always found it to be an incredible atmosphere. I can’t wait to get started and feel the warmth of the people.”
“With Vitelli we strengthen our central defenders department with a player who knows our championship very well and who in recent years and, in particular, in the recent Scudetto Play Offs, has demonstrated his value.” These are the words of President Stefano Fanini, who then added: “It is a profile that fits perfectly with our project and with the growth path we have set. Marco also boasts experience at international level, both with clubs and with the national team. Experience that he will be able to make available to the team to help make a further leap in quality. He has all the characteristics we look for in an athlete to do well in Verona. A warm welcome to Marco from the entire Club!”.
