Biography

His destiny seemed to be in football, while beach volleyball was played in his spare time on the beach at home in Cesenatico. However, from the height of his 195 cm, the Brazilian-born Italian was noticed by Thomas Casali, a player and organiser (cousin of Marco Pantani) who trained him. Legend has it that coach Paulao, after seeing him at a tournament in Ostia, called him up for the World Tour together with Matteo Ingrosso. He didn't even have his identity card with him and went back to Cesenatico to get it before leaving for The Hague. In Tokyo, he lives his Olympic dream, the fitting epilogue to a fantastic story. This time the documents are all in order.
