Preparation, Lisinac and Podrascanin from today at work at the BLM Group Arena

The sixth week of preparation for Itas Trentino officially starts Tuesday morning, but, for three yellow-blue players, the appointment with the BLM Group Arena has arrived today’s afternoon. In the weight room, Srecko Lisinac and Marko Podrascanin have undergone the first session of their season, together with the German libero Julian Zenger.
Arrived the last weekend in Trento, after a week off following the end of the European 2021, the two Serbian middle blockers immediately got to work to find themselves ready for the start of the championship.
“I left behind a difficult summer, because, in the end, we couldn’t succeed in obtaining results of level neither in VNL nor in the European, but, anyway, they have been good experiences – said Podrascanin - . In both competitions I was able to closely observe the quality of new teammates such as Lavia, Pinali, and Sbertoli, who together with Michieletto will return to Trento with a gold medal around their necks and this makes me very happy. Their continental win has further shown that the new Itas Trentino can have good satisfaction and fight for something more than fourth place. Civitanova, Perugia, and Modena have surely something more, but we have the strongest young people in Europe, and we can be a good surprise. I’m glad finally to find myself from the same part of the net with Kaziyski, with whom for many years we have taken on wonderful challenges. Matey is certainly one of the strongest players in the history of volleyball, and it was time to share something together. We haven’t much time to prepare the debut with Verona, but we will try our best to be ready.”
“The ankle injury in late May is only a memory – said Srecko Lisinac - ; I’m fine and, even though I didn’t express my best volleyball, I gladly played the European 2021. I’m growing day after day from the physical point of view, and I’m happy; I want to return soon to play also with the jersey of Trentino Volley. The new Itas Trentino will much lie on the enthusiasm of the four players of the Italian national team who have conquered the Final Four in Katowice. I really hope that they know how to bring their combative and winning spirit also at the BLM Group Arena.”
