Latina star Daniele Sottile is currently in Rio de Janeiro to prepare for the coming Olympic Games, which will kick off on August 7 with an opening game against France.

“I am very happy and satisfied to have this opportunity. We have just got here in Brazil but I can already say there is a special atmosphere in the village. Being here in the Olympic Games for Italy is a great honor. I think this is the dream of every professional athlete. Useless to say that I will give my absolute best, I will always go on about my job with maximum focus as I have always done”.
