Despite his young age Ivan Zaytsev is one of the most intriguing player of Italian Volleyball. Some experts even predict him a future with the national team.

“This year we’re struggling more than expected – said Zaytsev – We can beat unexpectedly some great opponent but then get caught against a weaker team”. Zaytsev went from setter to the wing but it did not affect him much “It’s true, I did not get unfazed by this change”.

Now the team has to keep fighting for a playoff spot “The ideal would be to win the next two home games. It might look like a very tough task but, on our day, and when we don’t put our heads down after mistakes, we can play face to face with anyone”. Mantova is the first one to beat.
