Joy Volley is happy to announce the confirmation of Giuseppe Longo, a setter born in 1998, who will continue to lead the team in the 2025/2026 season.

Experience, personality and vision of the game: with these qualities Longo immediately established himself as one of the leaders of the red and white group. Coming off a season as a protagonist, the number 8 is ready to take the keys to the game back in his hands and make the PalaCapurso crowd dream again.

Originally from Castellana Grotte and raised in the prestigious youth sector of Materdominivolley.it, Longo has had an important career between Serie A2 and A3, collecting 217 total appearances among the ranks of renowned teams such as Bergamo, Lecce, Macerata and Bari. A curriculum that speaks for itself and that once again nominates him for the role of reference in the new Joy Volley built to aim high.

Determined, gritty and gifted with a lucid and creative direction, Longo has won the hearts of the red and white fans. And this year too he will be the point of balance on the field, ready to transform every action into a show.

These are his words after the official confirmation: «I am very happy to continue wearing the Gioia jersey. It has been a year full of intense emotions: we have grown by facing challenges and we have never given up. There is a great desire to return to the field to continue this journey together. We will be determined to achieve the new objectives».
