Biography

It was not easy to take the place of Stefano Tempesti as custodian of the Settebello goal, but after years on the bench and waiting, now is his time. Already winner of a European bronze medal in 2014 and an Olympic one in 2016, he had the greatest satisfaction with a gold at the 2019 World Championships, where he played with confidence, giving decisive and encouraging evidence in view of Tokyo. Born in Tarquinia 31 years ago but raised in Civitavecchia, he is married to Alessandra, and in the future, he would like to train the children. Meanwhile, the red cap dreams of continuing to amass successes and of winning an Olympic medal as a protagonist.
