Market, the keys in the hands of Riccardo Sbertoli: here is the new setter

The keys of the game of Itas Trentino will be entrusted to a young and talented Italian setter: Riccardo Sbertoli. The agreement with the Lombard setter and Powervolley Milano, which launched him in SuperLega, was reached in the latest hours; the signing of the triennial contract will allow the yellow-blue Company to organize its future counting on one of the rising young players of worldwide volleyball.
Even if he is only twenty-three years old, Riccardo can already count on an important experience in SuperLega (170 played matches) and in the international manifestations, having played the latest two editions of Challenge Cup (winning the last) and collecting a significant number of attendances with the Italian jersey. Sbertoli is an all-rounder setter, gifted with great hands, particularly good in the quick game, who doesn’t disdain to conclude the action in first person, as told the 308 points scored in SuperLega so far (101 directly at service and 127 at blocking).
“Riccardo collects an important legacy in a key role like the one of the setter, but I’m sure that he will show all his value and will find in Trento the ideal environment to express himself and grow further – claimed the President Diego Mosna, welcoming Sbertoli - . I’m therefore happy to welcome him in Trentino Volley with all our respect and liking; the championship that he will face with the new team is going to be even more stellar and stimulating”.
Sbertoli had evidently Trentino Volley in his fate, having been born the 23 May (day of the foundation of the yellow-blue Club) and having often crossed it subnet in the latest years in SuperLega but also in the youth sector, when he wore the jersey of Volley Segrate 1978. During last month, he has already improved his teamwork with three other future teammates like Lorenzo Cortesia, Giulio Pinali, and Alessandro Michieletto, living as captain and protagonist the VNL 2021 of Rimini with the jersey of the national team.
