Brazilian setter Ricardinho and young Dutch outside hitter Boswinkel were unveiled today in a press conference. “We’re delighted we managed to bring both those players in Ravenna” said GM Giuseppe Cormio.

“Playing in Italy has always been my dream – said Ricardinho who speaks a little Italian already – When Ravenna called I just couldn’t turn it down. Only here can we find such a high level of competition in every game. You can win or lose any Sunday, that’s very exciting. In Portugal (he used to play for Benfica), there are only a few strong sides, while every game will be a battle here. Hopefully, we’ll win many of those”.

Then Boswinkel took over “I followed the Italian league from Holland. This is a great opportunity to become a better player. I can’t wait to put myself to the test, I have so much to learn. It would be great to play but I know it won’t be easy. I don’t personally know Torres but I know he’s a strong player, I’ll be able to learn a lot from him”.
