Argentine Facundo Conte arrived in town yesterday afternoon and he followed as a spectator the friendly win over Roma. He then started to work with the weight one day ahead of schedule after an excellent World Championship campaign.

“I can’t wait to start – he admitted – This is a great opportunity for me. I had the possibility to move up to the elite in the past but I preferred to stay in the A2 in order to play with consistency and improve technically and mentally”.
