Fabio Balaso exploded in 2012-13. He made his debut at 16 years old in the B1 and at 17 he was already in the A2. Now the talented libero will resume his career at Padova as he signed a three-year contract.

“I have learned the only way to get better is to give 100% every single day – said the youngster born in 1995 – Going from B1 to A2 has not been easy, the level is totally different. I was kind of scared at the beginning that I would find it hard to settle in this division. Training was tough too. But then thanks to my teammates, these fears flew away and I found the necessary confidence to play in the Serie A for the first time”.
