The first declarations of Omar Pelillo as new coach of Aurispa Libellula arrive. Yesterday, after being officially announced, he spoke to Mondoradio by pronouncing his first words as a new Salento coach: “The agreement with the club was very quick, for me it’s a great opportunity and an honor to lead a team that I know well and that I faced as an opponent of great battles when I was with Siena in A2 Salento is a beautiful club, with a beautiful environment and a great supporter that I will have the honor of having on my side, it will be wonderful to see the arena with everything the enthusiasm that surrounds this team.”

Regarding his stay in Italy, Pelillo explains: “I feel great in Italy, before going to Siena, I spent 5 years in Brolo and I had a great time in the south. For me, Puglia is one of the most beautiful areas in Italy and I’m ready for this challenge, I can’t wait to start.”

The new coach of Aurispa Libellula is already focused on what to do: “We’re already at work. I’ve just been in contact with the sporting director, Antonio Scarascia, but we’ve started working very intensely. The goal is to build a team suitable for the history of this club, used to being protagonists, so we are trying to set up a team that can play good volleyball.”

Unmissable is the welcome message from the Leones, the organized group of fans, who write: “When you came to play with Siena, you got to know us and you know how much we can give, in terms of enthusiasm, to the team. Now that you’re on our side, you’ll find out how nice it is to have the scream of the Leones behind your back! Welcome Mister Pelillo”. Pleasantly surprised, the coach replies as follows: “Thanks for the kind words, I can’t wait to be there and get to know the whole environment.”
