Macerata signed middleblocker Dragan Stankovic, who was at Budva, Montenegro. He was in the same group as Macerata in the first phase of the Champions League and finished top spiker with 66.7% in attack. Born in 1985, Stankovic signed until the end of the season as the club needed someone to fill in for the absence of Lebl, injured.

“This is a great opportunity for my career – said Stankovic – As soon as I received the phone call, I accepted straight away. I will play in one of the most important club on the international scene and the most famous one in my native Serbia”.
