Daldello is thrilled: “I’m ready to do my part, in the field and in the locker room”

Nicola Daldello

The first interview as a player of Trentino Volley for Nicola Daldello, new setter officialized today.

Welcome Nicola, tell us how did you get here in Trento.
"I received the phone call from Angelo Lorenzetti, a coach I respect a lot but with whom I have never had the chance to work with in the past. He asked me the availability to support Simone Giannelli in the new rose; an opportunity that I caught on the fly. I am very happy to be able to wear the Trentino Volley shirt".
In Trento, among other things, you have already spent a season, eleven years ago, in Serie B1.
"Together with my brother Matteo, I defended the colors of Blu City Trento, knowing better the environment, the city and the passion that this land shows on every occasion for volleyball. It's been a long time since then, but I definitely have only positive memories and it's a small advantage to start right away".
What do you think you can offer the team?
"I am ready to do my best to help the group achieve the required results. Objectively I think that Giannelli does not need a big hand because he is a great talent and he shows it every time, but I will be at the disposal of the technical staff to create a good atmosphere in the gym and in the dressing room. I like to live the group and work so that everything goes in the best possible way. At a technical level, then, I am a setter who can adapt to the characteristics of the attackers; I've played a lot in recent years, maybe even more than I expected on the eve, and I will not even pull back this time".
What does the landing in a company like Trentino Volley represent for you?
"I arrive at a very organized, professional and solid club, qualities that have been further demonstrated in the last season which began with some difficulties. Even in that case, however, the company has been able to square and the results have shown the great union of intent, something not always obvious. For years I had wanted to live an experience of this kind, in close contact with great players but also with a coach like Lorenzetti that I consider among the best ever. One of the main reasons that led me to come to Trento was the possibility of being trained by Angelo. An experience that will enrich me".
What are you going to do this summer before the meeting?
"Among my main passions there’s beach volleyball; in the recent past I was also a selector of the youth representatives of the Veneto region for this discipline. During the months of June, July and the first part of August I will be in Jesolo to train some guys who will play the stages of the Italian championship, then I will dive into my new adventure in Trentino".
