Padova announced it obtained the right of Francesco De Marchi from Latina. Born in 1986 in Padova, de Marchi signed a two-year deal. He came up in Treviso’s youth ranks before moving to Corigliano (A2) in 2005-06. He already played for Padova in 2007-08, under coach Bagnoli, before earning promotion from the A2 with Latina. Last year he came back in his home town on loan.

“I think we have everything needed to win the league” said Francesco.
