On the day of his withdrawal he was a member, then the club decided to sign him up; by regulation, he couldn’t get on the scoresheet in the first three matchdays and so he was called up for the fourth. In Cagliari, he entered place 4 at the beginning of the second set to replace the unfortunate Daniele Carpita and has never come out since. Indeed, in the 3-1 inflicted by ErmGroup Altotevere on Monge Gerbaudo Savigliano there was also (and above all, in some circumstances) the contribution of Nico Cipriani (in the photo), born in 2002, in his third overall season in blue and white. Starting at just 19 years old as an opposite in the team that reached the final of the Serie B play-offs in May 2022, the spiker from Promano (fraction of Città di Castello) made his debut the following year in the Serie A3 Credem Banca championship, then last year’s parenthesis back in B with Tomei Livorno and now we find him in the White group after a match in which he was the protagonist: 15 points and a 54% realization, a winning block and an ace, but other situations in which his powerful serve put the Piedmontese reception in crisis. A performance that testified to the total reintegration of “Cipri” into the group coached by the Bartolini-Monaldi-Marra trio. “Full reinstatement and wonderful return – comments Cipriani – because the corporate, technical and healthcare staff welcomed me back with open arms and in Cagliari I had the opportunity to be used again, even if unfortunately due to the sprain that put Carpita out, to whom I wish a quick recovery.
