After Paoletti and Borgogno, Ortona got another big strike on the market with the addition of Alessio Fiore. Born in 1982, the Ortona squad never seemed to be able to beat the spiker from the Apulia region when he was at Sora. Unstoppable from the serve, he’s a classy player in every situation who’s ready to fight for every rally. He had made his debut in the Serie A2 years ago with Taviano helping the team to win the Cup of the division. He made it to the top in the A1 with San Giustino in 2012-13, while he spent the last two seasons at Sora.

“I would never have turned down such a great opportunity – he said – I’m used to play in gyms with great atmosphere and I know it won’t be any different in Ortona. I’ll do what I’ve always done, take advantage of each day to improve myself as a player in order for the team to get better too”.
