Matteo Staforini, born in 2003, will also remain at Allianz Milano for the 2025/26 season. An important confirmation, which together with that of his colleague in the department, Damiano Catania, also represents one of the two or three strongest libero pairs in the SuperLega in the next championship. A significant consolidation, desired by president Lucio Fusaro and sports director Fabio Lini – among the first to believe in Staforini’s talent – to guarantee continuity and quality to a fundamental department. For Staforini it will be the fourth season with Powervolley, after the last one, and those from 2020 to 2022, before the experiences in Cisterna and Cuneo. With Allianz Milano he won a Challenge Cup, with the Under 20 national team the European gold. Bergamasco, who grew up volleyball-wise in the Diavoli Rosa, is an important pawn on and off the court. That’s why he chose to play again in the shadow of the Madonnina. Matteo, what convinced you to stay in Milan for another season, despite the offers you received from other clubs? «I think it was my desire to fulfill myself in what I consider my city, which saw me grow. I can’t wait to play again in our Allianz Cloud and in front of our fans».
