Tommaso Stefani, 22 years old, joins coach Cuttini’s roster for this SuperLega season. The Florentine spiker, one of the best Italian prospects in his national role, returned from a shoulder injury last season, which forced him to leave Gioiella Prisma Taranto, where he had been playing since the 2021_22 season. “For me it is an unrepeatable opportunity, happy to be in Padua!”.
Tommaso Stefani can boast, in addition to the title won with Michieletto and his teammates in the U21 World Championships, a U19 World Championship won in 2019, a Pre-Junior World Championship and a silver at the U20 European Championship, both won in 2020.
“I am really happy with the opportunity that Pallavolo Padova offered me. – commented Tommaso Stefani upon his arrival in Padua – This call represents for me the possibility of seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. After the injury, and the subsequent operation, it was a challenging period, which put me to the test. Luckily those moments are now long gone and now my goal is to give my best here in Padua.”
“I arrive in Padua with the intention of returning to my best form and growing as much as possible. – continues the former Gioiella Prisma Taranto spiker – I owe this to myself and in particular to the Juventus club, which I want to repay for the trust it has shown in me. Returning to having a company, a group and a team at my side fills me with joy and determination.”
