The coaching staff was completed with the signing of scout Francesco Racaniello. “I have always been passionate about volleyball – said the 30-year-old from Bitonto in the Apulia region – I played at a non-professional level and then started as an assistant coach in the Serie C and coaching youth volleyball”. Bari, Gioa del Colle (A2) and Corigliano were his next stop before finishing the 2013-14 season at Lyon, working with coach Prandi.
