Milan awaits the return of its warrior. Allianz Powervolley has confirmed spiker Francesco Checco Recine for next season and looks forward to seeing him back on the court in the upcoming SuperLega and Coppa Italia battles, following the serious Achilles tendon injury that sidelined him during the most important moment of the season. The Italian spiker, one of the Allianz Cloud fans’ favorites, continues his recovery with the determination that has always distinguished him. The city, the fans, starting with President Lucio Fusaro, and the entire Powervolley community await the return of him with his energy, smile, and fighting spirit. Ahead of the new season, Checco candidly discusses how he’s been navigating these difficult months away from Taraflex, his expectations for the future, the summer without the national team, the many new faces at Allianz Milano, and the special bond he’s created with the Milanese community.
