On a roster packed with young players, Potenza brought in the experience and quality of Lorenzo Gemmi. The former Ortona star is back in his home region after years touring the country. Gemmi came up in the youth academy of Macerata, where he also played for the first team helping the club win one league title and two Cev Cups.
“The first thing I feel like saying is that I’m finally back home, or at least just a few blocks from home – said the newcomer – I have great respect for GM Carlo Muzi, I am thrilled to join Potenza and I am certain coach Graziosi will put together a competitive team. We have a lot of Under 23. An advantage. The league is exhausting, but the youngsters can hold their own athletically. Besides, the A2 has changed a lot, it’s time to dare”.
