Candellaro plays in the fourteen Italian players for the Japan World Cup

The European Championship 2019 experience is over. From now on, the Italian Nation prepares itself to live another international event. Between the 1st and 15th October it’s going to play at the Japan World Cup 2019 – with USA too, with Aaron Russell. In the official list, among the fourteen players summoned by the Coach Gianlorenzo Blengini we can’t see Simone Giannelli (in some days will restart the activity with ITAS Trentino, after a period of well-earned rest); on the contrary there’s Davide Candellaro, who will come back only on September 17.

Here’s the full list of the Italians, summoned for the World Cup 2019:

Setters: Riccardo Sbertoli (Milan), Francesco Zoppellari (Lagonegro).
Spikers: Oleg Antonov (Galatasaray), Oreste Cavuto (Ravenna), Dick Kooy (Piacenza), Daniele Lavia (Ravenna).
Opposite hitters: Gabriele Nelli (Piacenza), Giulio Pinali (Modena).
Middle blockers: Simone Anzani (Civitanova), Davide Candellaro (Trento), Matteo Piano (Milano), Roberto Russo (Perugia).
Libero: Fabio Balaso (Civitanova), Nicola Pesaresi (Milan).

Italian’s departure: Saturday 28th, Milan.
