The Air Canada Boeing 777 AC890 will transport Danny Demyanenko from Toronto to Rome, the first and so far only athlete in the history of the Grottazzolina club to have played in the Olympics during his contractual stay in the small village of Fermo. Before him, in fact, Jaroslav Antonov and his son Oleg, as well as the late Alexis Batte, also had the honor of participating in the five-ring competition, but no one had ever done so before as a Grotese member. At Yuasa Battery there is therefore great anticipation for the arrival of the Canadian centre-back, with a delegation from the club already ready to leave to welcome him at Fiumicino international airport and, after a transoceanic flight of eight and a half hours and over 7000 km , finally bring him to Grottazzolina to allow him to hug and get to know his new teammates in this first adventure in SuperLega.
Arrival expected around 11.30am on Sunday 25 August, and from there the first real contact with Italy and with M&G Scuola Pallavolo, which has placed strong bets on Demyanenko and which expects an important contribution in terms of an athlete of such stature technicians and experience.
