I’m happy because for me it was full circle, I started my career in Pineto and it was my intention to finish here, I thank all those who have accompanied me on this long journey always in the name of passion and love for this sport. Precisely these two great levers have set in motion a new adventure that I can’t wait to start. I hope to be able to give my contribution to ABBA Pineto Volleyball, even off the field, to achieve more and more successes and satisfactions by bringing the Pineto name throughout Italy. I thank the club for having trusted me as a player and for continuing to give me more by offering me this opportunity as a manager. Today like yesterday and even more tomorrow, Go ABBA Pineto Volley”
