Isernia’s first signing comes from a northern country. After the middle blocker Shumov and libero Kangasniemo, here comes another Finnish: spiker Antti Poikela. The 22-year old played last season in Pielaveden Sampo. This signing was possible thanks to the excellent relationships existing between team manager Fraraccio and the captain of the Finnish national team Tuomas Sammelvuo.

“I want to keep bringing in young Finnish players – said the Fraraccio – They guarantee good fundamentals, some excellent physical attributes and a good character too”.
