The group available to coach Andrea Anastasi is growing numerically. A couple of days ago the six athletes (Robertlandy Simon, Robbert Andringa, Leonardo Scanferla, Fabio Ricci, Nicola Salsi and Moussé Gueye) were joined by Kainoa Wade and Kearney Finn, two American players in their first year at the University of Hawaii and now also the promising young Bulgarian Hristo Hristo.

Seventeen years old, spiker with a sure future, he has been in Italy for seven years and plays in Treviso as an Italian. This week he will continue to work under the orders of Andrea Anastasi and his staff.

“Hristo is a very interesting boy – underlines coach Andrea Anastasi – as are the two young Americans Kainoa and Kearney. They are giving us a big hand in a period in which we are numerically few, even next week there will be only a few of us in the gym waiting for the arrival of the players who were not involved with their respective national teams until a few days ago.”

Kovacevic and Bovolenta will be added to the group of red and whites already present on August 22nd, then in rapid succession Maar, Galassi, Romanò and the Olympic champion Brizard. Loreti will join the group in September, once the commitments with the Under 20 national team involved in the European Category Championship which will be held in Greece and Serbia from 24 August to 8 September are finished.
